And we shouldn't be fixated with removing road kill from the shoulders of roads to spare motorists of the visuals... Another thing we do that defies logic is cremating our pets. Why don't we haul them out back and leave them be for the clean up crew?

Very clean and efficient. I've never heard of vultures attacking live animals!

My family didn't bury pets or livestock either. It all got hauled out back by a tractor and that included dairy cows... reduce, reuse, and recycle and all that good jazz. Never underestimate what a starving animal will do to survive. I've got some photos of a bouncing baby buzzard in an upper barn loft. Beautiful white baby waiting for mom to come home.

Lets see your photos. Pleeaasse
Yes if they were starving.... I just can't get my mind wrapped around the concept that people would want to harm them.

Here ya go milkweed. These photos were taken with an old digital camera by a totally awesome person who is into her land hook line and sinker... the quality sucks but her bouncing baby buzzard photos are way cool.
