do you think pitching a corpse or or dead animal out the car window is littering?

i was up in the redwoods a few days ago, and this was a heated discussion at a local coffee shop. zero tolerance to littering, or is biomass ok?

See my response to the prior thread. If in bushes or forest, then its okay. But have to remove all non natural, non biodegradable parts, e.g. clothing, fillings, toupees, body piercings, artificial joints, pacemakers, silicone implants. If nails are painted, have to cut them off too. Better remove the finger pads, face, and dental too.

Just use one of these.

If I should die before I wake,
All my bones and sinew take;
Put me in the compost pile,
And decompose me for a while.

Wind, water, rain will have their way,
Returning me to common clay!
All that I am will feed the trees,
and little fishes in the seas.

On radishes and corn you munch--
You might be having me for lunch!
And then excrete me with a grin--
Chortling, "There goes Lee again!!"

-Lee Hays

If it's indigenous to the area then it's not littering.

As long as the "two behind the ear" etiquette is used before disposal. In California we prefer the "scattering of bones by coyote" method.

I find if you chop them up in smaller pieces and spread them out then there's less impact on the environment.....spread the love

When my daughter first started dating, I made the point of telling the guys that I had 18 acres, a shovel, and a bag of lime.

You ever notice how the dead ones in Spandex and Gortex never seem to decompose?

I don't really pay attention. I'm usually too busy trying to untangle those enrigored limbs from the bicycle.

I always thought a body would decompose faster out in the woods. Boy was I wrong.
