Dead animal Removal

[Mike Flick]

Most counties wont mind you putting a dead animal in a trash bag and throwing it out with the trash as long as it doesnt exceed 6 pounds. Today I got a call from a woman in Pheonix AZ who found a half eaten deer in her back yard. That would have been hard to get in a garbage bag. Ive done dead deer removals before, and found it easiest to roll the deer onto a tarp made of plastic, then drag it to the truck. It can then be taken to most land fills. Dead birds are found after they crash into windows, but sometimes there is no explaining the birds death. In that case, as with any animal, it may be sick. Call the CDC before attempting to throu it away. The imformation they gain from the bird or animal may be vital to heading off an eppidemic.
