Not really. PA will still allow you to keep roadkill if you report it.

  Even in states where you can't legally keep roadkill its often with a wink and a nudge that the officer/trooper on scene will say "I've taken my report and I'm going home. If that deer vanishes before fish and game gets here to collect it in an hour or so, well, I guess the coyotes were hungry tonight."

  In most states it is up to the police (game warden is police and should be consulted) discretion. They will almost always give you a permit for the roadkill. The animal is dead and despite OP, most people are not killing deer with their car, so may as well not let it go to waste. Of course there are exceptions and so if the police suspect something they will not give the permit.

    One interesting thing that I learned when I visited the Minnesota Wolf Center (20 years ago, but still...) was that their wolves were fed only from roadkill collected in a 100 mile radius.

  Here in Norway they usually give it to a nearby nursing home, assuming it's in good shape for human consumption. Nice dinner for the elders.
