That’s why June Munski-Feenan, executive director of the North Valley Food Bank, answers the phone in the middle of the night – might be someone calling about a dead elk. “There’s no wasted food here,” Munski-Feenan said. Munski-Feenan said North Valley Food Bank is the only major food bank in the state that collects freshly killed deer and elk after a car hits them. All local law-enforcement agencies, as well as Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks, know to contact Munski-Feenan immediately after arriving at the scene of a collision that kills a game animal. If she can get one of the food bank’s many volunteers to pick up the roadkill within an hour, the animal will end up in North Valley’s butchering room.
