Of course there is these days at least in Europe. When an animal dies on
farm you must have it collected by a special knacker firm at high cost. No
worries, the system can't last much longer.

This brings up a question: When livestock die on a farm or (particularly) a
ranch, do ranchers leave the body in place (maybe covered with a bit of
mulch or straw as cover matter) and allow it to feed the soil, feed the
vultures, etc? That's what I would want to do. And that's what would seem
most logical from a permaculture standpoint, but I could see there being
some kind of regulation against it in our hyperregulated society.
