An answer on the 100s of animal bones on the Beaver Pond Trail A problem for farmers was handled realistically, naturally. Carrion eaters have to eat, also By Billy Joe Fudge "One of the unfortunate realities of life is death" I explained on one of the guided trail walks yesterday, "and that reality extends to cattle and hogs also." In modern times the Hall Brothers, according to my understanding had as many as 400 head of cattle and I don't know how many hogs on Homeplace at any one given time. Of course, when any of those cattle died they usually were put in an out of the way place that would have little chance of contaminating ground water that might be used for human consumption. I was asked why they didn't bury them and my short answer was and is, "buzzards, possums and other carrion eaters have to eat, also."
