Image is more important than environmental integrity?
Environmental integrity= dumping guts on the roadside? Not hardly. I'm all for letting the other animals pick the carcasses clean. Mink, coons, coyotes and other critters will benefit from your discarded carcasses, but the side of the road isn't the place for that to happen. I saw a deer carcass on the boat ramp the other day. Now I've got to move it to launch my boat.
I said dump your birds in a hole on your property instead of the side of the road. Dumping on someone else's property is littering. It might mean the difference in a $250 ticket.
Dumping carcasses on the side of the road is just pure laziness.
Jar, you don't reckon it was a coyote, do you?

We just bought a house and 16 acres. My neighbor owns 120 acres. Guess where he decided to build a shop/tool shed? Right out my back door.....next to the dead Massey Ferguson tractor and rusty Sears metal storage shed that survived the winds of Katrina. He's been 'working' on it for about 6 months now.......and hasn't poured the first ditch fulla concrete, yet. (I've still got time for my plan to take affect)
So his 'construction site' is right across the fence from my garden, OK? I walk out every morning to go get in my truck and his emplement grave yard is the first thing I see.
So, everytime I see a road kill (including skunks), I take it home and throw it down there in the garden, right next to the fence line.......along with feathers, guts, bones, and horse poop scooped-up from all over my pastures. It's a virtual burial site. I can hardly wiat 'til the fish start biting heavy again. 'Oughta make good compost, don't you think? He's got some ferrel cats that hang-out on his place. I'm hoping they'll drag some tid-bits back over on his side of the fence and leave'm scattered all over his new red clay dirt.
Hey.......Maybe I can tell my neighbor on the other side (dairy farmer) he can put his dead cows in there, too.
Just wait 'til I get around to setting-up my new rifle range.......
