It's illegal to pick up roadkill. Texas Parks and Wildlife has told me (direct quote from correspondence)
"It has been killed by an illegal means (vehicles are not a legal means &
method to hunt in Texas using that vehicle) and it was taken on a public
road right-of-way (highway, street, avenue, county road, farm market rd,
etc.)."
I pointed out I was in possession of a valid hunting license the last time a deer ran into the side of my vehicle, it hit me, not I it...and I quote:
"A hunting or fishing license is used to take, harvest, catch, kill
wildlife species by legal means & methods listed for that species on
private property or public hunting lands."
