[QUOTE="martian, post: 7714114, member: 801"] Derek Gow, the beaver man, has built a ten foot high platform on his farm which he stocks with carcasses. I was reading about this recently, I can't think where, but he gets amazing bird activity and even the odd vulture. Presumably the sky tomb is ok as it won't frighten the ramblers or pass on disease, but you miss out so much of the extra insect interest by not having the carcass interacting with the soil. Makes so much sense to let nature work it's magic with our fallen stock, rather than pay the knacker man to dispose of it. I look forward to a change in the rules... [/QUOTE]
