called and then they will donate/call for the remains to be picked up/processed (depending on location). Sometimes they just left the remains lay there and let nature take over, or simply just took the call and told us to go ahead and remove/process the remains ourselves. This was usually pretty desirable as most county roads in rural MO are barely 2 lane roads w/ no shoulders.

I know where we lived at in the Ozarks, deer kills were frequent, and we usually called one of our neighbors who were into processing kills of this type. They would go pick up the remains (all of it) and properly dispose of it. They were the hillbilly type and were real happy about such calls. Although w/ CWD (chronic wasting disease) this does happen as frequently as it used to, and one needs to be cautious in dealing with the potential of such diseases. They have been doing this for over 30 years and they are still alive and kicking (the neighbors). They usually made it into jerky (dried it/smoked it in a 'smoke house') and fed the remains to their (I think 7 or 8 dogs).
