NFT: What's the most disgusting animal carcass

Shockeyisthebest80 : 8/29/2014 2:08 pm
you've had to handle at your home/property?

I just had to remove a live mouse, which certainly isn't a big deal. But I once had to remove a headless bird from the backyard and a squirrel that had fallen into a garbage can with water in it. I don't know if the squirrel had fallen in the can before it rained or after, but the clean-up reminded me of Robocop when the guy liquefies on the car.

don't have any experience (thankfully), but I have to imagine having to dispose of a dead skunk on your property would suck a lot.
My friend, I can tell you stories that will make your hair stand!

I left my old farm house(back in the 80's)for a relaxing weekend away.

I walked back in to a 100 degree house and it smelled like you wouldn't believe. While I was gone a possum had climbed in to the return air vent and died. In the heat it swelled up and blocked the air flow. I can't describe the scene.

The fun part was taking apart the outside unit and getting the body out.
Went away on a 2 week vacation in HOT summer month

Caught a mouse in a live trap, maybe before I left and did not notice. I'm assuming that one expires due to lack of water. Another mosies on into the trap, seemingly not long afterwards (I can only assume due to the rank stench and amount of decay of mouse #1's gnawed skeleton) Mouse #2 has to resort to cannibalism on the existing mouse in the trap. The second one expired as well but probably right before I was able to let it out.... but not before eating and crapping out the first mouse. It was pretty disgusting.

a few weeks ago. That was interesting. Only took the Backstraps, shoulders and hams. Not big enough to go after the tenderloins. First one, but I'm hoping to get somemore practice this coming week
Alex, can I have

Wasn't sure if I should tell it here. Oh, God. It was so horrible. It was Christmas Eve. I was 9 years old. Me and Mom were decorating the tree, waiting for Dad to come home from work. A couple hours went by. Dad wasn't home. So Mom called the office. No answer. Christmas Day came and went, and still nothing. So the police began a search. Four or five days went by. Neither one of us could eat or sleep. Everything was falling apart. It was snowing outside. The house was freezing, so I went to try to light up the fire. That's when I noticed the smell. The firemen came and broke through the chimney top. And me and Mom were expecting them to pull out a dead cat or a bird. And instead they pulled out my father. He was dressed in a Santa Claus suit. He'd been climbing down the chimney... his arms loaded with presents. He was gonna surprise us. He slipped and broke his neck. He died instantly. And that's how I found out there was no Santa Claus

We had a house in Vermont. Drove up one weekend and one of the windows was broken. Found a dead bird inside. Not really a biggie, lol.

Not as bad as a possum in yer ventilation in 100 degrees maybe, but it was right under my flucking bed, so that counts fer sumpthin. Plus, it was a big ass city rat. I don't miss that house.

Unless someone here has had an experience with larger livestock falling into a vat of acid, I'm pretty sure okie is walking away with this one.
