Around here they have incinerators and compost piles. I suppose a source of animal food is feasible. Seems like a waste of landfill to me.

I learned ‘the ins and outs’ of composting an entire dairy cow a few weeks ago through a goat farmer that I know. It can be done. “We mammals” break down incredibly fast into our base components. ;)
Most farmers around here compost their dead livestock. If you do it right there’s no smell, no muss and no fuss. Of course, that is, until the PETA Phreaks find out about you, LOL!
I take my deceased (of natural causes; old age or a raccoon attack) laying hens down the farm lane to the Back Forty and leave them at the edge of the woods for the coyotes. They don’t waste a feather.
