Someone hit a deer outside our house sometime last week and it is creating quite the stench in this 90 degree weather. I am afraid to go outside.
This is not our first encounter with a deceased deer, but the previous animal was on our property and in plain sight. We dragged it off to the back yard and dug a hole to get get rid of it. This beast was hidden from sight in the tall grass across the street until a few days passed it got all puffed up. It's legs were about the only thing visible. Now it has deflated and I'm afraid it's a little late to drag it off for burial... at least without a gas mask. I'm keeping my windows closed, especially when the wind is blowing, and praying that flock of turkey vultures will show up.

your to rural for animal control?
ReplyDeleteIt's a public health hazard?
now the not smiling... you pay taxes, some public official is responsible for this "waste project"
It isn't in the road. It's on private property, and that makes it the landowner's responsibility. The good news is the wind isn't blowing the stench into my yard today.
ReplyDeleteEeew. You'd think those vultures would be all over it!
ReplyDeleteOnce the vultures find it, they'll have a heyday.
