24 Laying out of the bag (Streckelegen).
Following a shoot, [ie a day's shooting] the game is laid out on its
right side, in rows [with every tenth beast set back for ease of
counting], according to rank. Rank is as follows, with the best
specimens first, red deer, fallow deer, pig, roe deer,fox, hare,
rabbit, pheasant and other feathered game. When the game is displayed,
the guns take their designated places [usually in a circle] and
wearing their hats and carrying their guns, the horns are played for
each species killed as a mark of respect. One always walks *round* the
game and *NEVER* steps over it.

Here is a similar reference, this time from the US:

He explained that when hunters greet each other, they exchange the "Waidmannsheil," or "hunter's cheer." At the end of a social hunt, all the hunters gather and lay out the day's take in what is known as the "strecke legen."
"It's a very traditional ceremony where they pay respect to the game that was taken that day. They play certain songs and music with their hunting horns, everyone takes off their hat and the person who shot the highest ranked game that day is presented as the king of the hunt," explained Jorstad.
