Carcass disposal

buzzards have to eat too

 

Trash guy gets all of mine, he dosn't like me but he takes them any way!

 

heh, my Grandpa takes the squirrels for dinner!

 

Ya can either make a hell of a stew or gift it to your local garbage removal tec.

 

I feed the local predator population by night and the buzzards by day. Could have been why I had such a successful first trapping season?

 

Freeze whatever is left over (so it want start stinking) put it in the trash on trash day

 

I do what jerry does, that way I don't pi$$ my trashman off and have to find someone more expensive!(LOL)

 

i skip all those steps and go to a hog farmer with a compost pile and its completely free but for two squirrels it shouldn't be a big deal to do what matt and jerry do, what the trash man don't know won't hurt him, besides i don't think two squirrel bodies would be illegal to throw away anyways.

 

Our trash man used to HATE us. Then we started re-freezing everything in plastic bags and then just before the trash goes out pulling them from the freezer and putting them in the cans.

 

Freeze and dispose

 

Same freeze and in the trash.

 

The neighbors roof has some meat scraps on it.

 

Let um sit out a week then put them in the trash as cold as it is now it an't bad but i would hate to be my trash man this summer lol

 

If it's a safe game animal (rabbit, squirrel, etc.) then I will freeze for 2 weeks to kill any remaining parasites and then butcher (if necessary) and feed it to my cats. If it's an unsafe game animal (hog, coyote, bobcat, etc.) then we usually double or triple bag it, and then freeze and throw in the dumpster the night before trash day. I've been considering taking the carcasses to local wildlife/raptor rehab facilities to see if they might have use for it, or throwing it in an abandoned lot/the woods for the vultures to eat on, I'm waiting to hear back from TPWD on if that's legal or not.

 

I put mine in the freezer until trash day as well. This might be a little unlikely, but depending on your volume and concern for your trash people, you may try calling up a pet crematory nearby and asking if you can occasionally drop some off to be communally cremated. They would probably charge based on weight. Veterinarians often use this service to properly dispose of medical waste (removed tumors, amputations, etc.). Might be fine with them, they might also laugh and hang up on you. Just depends I guess.

 

There is a Chinese restraunt at the end of my street. Cheapest prices in town. Wonder how they beat the competition?

 

I don't have that problem because I am the trash man for a private hauler LOL. I must have taken 300 pounds of scraps, old salt, caped out heads, fox, coyote bodies to work with me last week and ever week while the season is in full boar. I only get once a week collection here at home so a lot goes with me. But I do leave some for my township guys, got to get use out of my taxes.

 

Neighbors trash cans when their not home.

 

We use a snowmobile with a tow sled in winter , wheelbarrow in summer . We have a dump site about 200 yds. behind shop, it's heavily wooded (spruce fir ) also have a tree stand at site . Coyotes , fisher , bobcat , ravens , eagles and others clean everything very quickly ... Bill ...
