US Forest Service guide on how to detonate a dead horse [1]
['David Pescovitz']
Date: 2022-08-25
We all know it's inadvisable to attempt detonating a dead whale but in the case of other large animals, sometimes desperate times call for dynamite. In 1995, the US Department of Forest Service issued an official illustrated guide to "Obliterating Animal Carcasses With Explosives."
As the guide explains, "There are times when it is important to remove or obliterate an animal carcass from locations such as recreation areas where a carcass might attract bears, at a popular picnic area where the public might object, or along the side of roads or trails."
