As far as I know there is no laws against it. This time of year food is so easily available they won't pay much attention to gut piles and such. But once the snow hits and gets beyond cold this could be very effective. The key is to set the traps back off the pile. These keeps you from catching birds of prey
BINGO! Billy wins the prize today!
No laws against it. Not a good idea though. Last gut pile I had in an open field was completely gone before the end of the day. All due to the birds. Crows were first, followed by red tail hawks, then the buzzards. Nothing left but blood stained dirt by dark.
Once it is cleaned up, it will draw in coyotes. The best bet is a
scent post set 30' feet or so on the UP WIND side of the pile.
