Just make him comfortable as possible, once they go down like that normally I would say death is inevitable. Saving him would probably fall into the miracle cure category.

In West Virginia, by law the body needs to be buried within 24 hours. Local custom is to drag it over the hill into the woods. We live in very hilly country, ridges really. Where they can't be seen, or smelled, from the road, and the scavangers clean it up to the bones. Vultures, crows, raccoons, coyotes, skunks, etc. In NV, we don't follow the local custom so much as because we don't slaughter the animals, we have many more natural deaths as a result, and have come under some extra scrutiny, so we go by the law and bury them. Space is not a problem. I have tried in the past to burn cows that have died "over the hill" as they say in West Virginia, which is to say in locations that are difficult to access. My attempts were pretty futile, as it takes a huge amount of fuel to burn a body, as a body is mostly water. Hydrated lime on a body cuts the smell and speds up decomposition. Some times you can pay someone to cart the body away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 9, 1999 Report Share Posted December 9, 1999 At Gita Nagari, by law we had to call for someone to take them away. Valley Protein (don't ask) would pick them up for nothing. It was hard to have an old friend and co-worker go to such a nasty place, but on the other hand, leather has to come from somewhere, why not there?
