I suggest you give it a proper burial. That poor deer! (sobs)

You were the same one that asked the blood stains on the wall question, huh?

Bring the body to me. I always carry a shovel, gloves, duct tape, and a bag of lime in the trunk of my car for such occasions.

Are they building any sports complexes in your area?

I hear lye is good at disappearing things.

If you have readily available means with which to grind the corpse up you could make some reasonably good compost to either use or give/sell to local farmers.
If you simply want rid of it then I would suggest burying.

I was convinced by @syz long ago that hyenas are the answer to this and similar problems:

Take it to a farm and feed it to the pigs.

I wonder if the local zoo might be interested in it as carnivore food.

Talk to a local butcher.

I would contact your County Animal Control offices and see if they can send somebody to take it off your hands, or give it to a butcher.

Also, why is “deer” in quotations?

syz's avatar

The landfill accepts bodies, although sometime only on specific days or in specific areas.

Call your county DNR for suggestions.

I have had deer die on my property, but in full sight of house. A friend towed the corpus into the woods and left it for carrion. That is legal here. There are animals and birds who will pick the carcass clean.

If it’s fresh, I’d definitely suggest getting some deer bologna made. If not, I’d drive it to some woods and let nature take its course.

How did you find the deer? Did you cut it up yourself? Just curious. This thread is kind of grossing me out.

Nially_Bob's avatar

@gailcalled I have a friend who lives in a largely rural area and hunts regularly but the majority of what he captures is cut up and fed to his pirahnas. Until I personally watched them feeding I thought alot of what was claimed regarding their feeding habits were rumours but having given them the food everything that is edible is devoured in mere minutes.

@monsoon They’ll go through bone like butter.

Hence the expression, “As greedy as a pig”.

Lupin's avatar

You can dump it in my woods. The coyote in the area would have it devoured in two days. Even the bones disappear – I don’t understand where they go. Most likely another dimension.

“deer” 185lbs, how to clean lots of blood, Dude you better be sure if anyone goes missing in your area the cops don’t confiscate your computer hard drive.

Quick! Clear your history!

Wood chipper.

augustlan's avatar

Couldn’t you just bury it? Really, really deep.

AstroChuck's avatar

@augustlan- I find shallow graves work fine. Just throw in a little lime.

Landfill, late at night.

Around here, deer are overrunning the place. Now there are females with twin fawns roving about. If you miss the first one, you will probably smash your car into the second or third.

Often, the deer run into the car or across the bow. The Taconic Highway, a ruralish road, is littered with deer carcasses. I was driving at night in an area with no house and no street lights; a deer careened into the side of my car. Luckily I was going only 35 mph but it felt as though a large train had hit the side of the car. $1800 worth of damage, and I considered myself lucky.

Biological washing powder. In a bath. After a week all you’ll have is bones.

Proper burial. (:

I think a song from when I was a kid should be able to provide some guidance:

“Old mother Hubberred went to the cupboard to fetch the dog a bone. When she got there she found deer and threw it out the window. Then window the window the second story window…”
