Is hunter-harvested game meat safe to eat during the COVID-19 pandemic?
section_content: Currently, there is no evidence that you can get infected with the virus that
causes COVID-19 by eating food, including wild hunted game meat. However,
hunters can get infected with other diseases when processing or eating game.
Hunters should always practice good hygiene when processing animals by
following these food safety recommendations:

Do not harvest animals that appear sick or are found dead.
Keep game meat clean and cool the meat down as soon as possible after harvesting the animal.
Avoid cutting through the backbone and spinal tissues and do not eat the brains of any wild animal.
When handling and cleaning game: 
Wear rubber or disposable gloves.
Do not eat, drink, or smoke.


When finished handling and cleaning game: 
Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water.
Clean knives, equipment, and surfaces that were in contact with game meat with soap and water and then disinfect them. While these recommendations apply to general food safety practices, if you are concerned about COVID-19, you may use a product on the EPA list of disinfectants for use against the COVID-19 virusexternal icon.


Cook all game meat thoroughly (to an internal temperature of 165°F or higher).
Check with your state wildlife agency regarding any testing requirements for other diseases and for any specific instructions regarding preparing, transporting, and consuming game meat.

Can wild animals spread the virus that causes COVID-19 to people or pets?
section_content: Currently, there is no evidence to suggest the virus that causes COVID-19 is
circulating in free-living wildlife in the United States, or that wildlife
might be a source of infection for people in the United States. The first case
of a wild animal testing positive for the virus in the United States was a
tiger with a respiratory illness at a zoo in New York City. However, this
tiger was in a captive zoo environment ,and public health officials believe
the tiger became sick after being exposed to a zoo employee who was infected
and spreading the virus.
If a wild animal were to become infected with the virus, we don’t know whether
the infection could then spread among wildlife or if it could spread to other
animals, including pets. Further studies are needed to understand if and how
different animals, including wildlife, could be affected by COVID-19. Because
wildlife can carry other diseases, even without looking sick, it is always
important to enjoy wildlife from a distance.
Take steps to prevent getting sick from wildlife in the United States:

Keep your family, including pets, a safe distance away from wildlife.
Do not feed wildlife or touch wildlife droppings.
Always wash your hands and supervise children washing their hands after working or playing outside.
Leave orphaned animals alone. Often, the parents are close by and will return for their young.
Consult your state wildlife agency’s guidance if you are preparing or consuming legally harvested game meat.
Do not approach or touch a sick or dead animal – contact your state wildlife agency instead.


Reviewer feedback on this answer:
This answer does not relate to hunting and eating game, and does not relate.
While not answering the question directly as to what to do when it comes to eating harvested game from hunting it at least answers the possibility of wildlife being infected.

Can bats in United States get the virus that causes COVID-19, and can they spread it back to people?
section_content: Other coronaviruses have been found in North American bats in the past, but
there is currently no evidence that the virus that causes COVID-19 is present
in any free-living wildlife in the United States, including bats. In general,
coronaviruses do not cause illness or death in bats, but we don’t yet know if
this new coronavirus would make North American species of bats sick. Bats are
an important part of natural ecosystems, and their populations are already
declining in the United States. Bat populations could be further threatened by
the disease itself or by harm inflicted on bats resulting from a misconception
that bats are spreading COVID-19. However, there is no evidence that bats in
the United States are a source of the virus that causes COVID-19 for people.
Further studies are needed to understand if and how bats could be affected by
COVID-19.

Reviewer feedback on this answer:
This answer only relates to bats, and not harvested game from hunters.
Unless someone is hunting bats to eat this answer will not satisfy the query given. There is a small throwaway reference to "free-living wildlife" but that does not answer the question either.
