True story, I heard that live on the radio.

I happened to be in Fargo that morning, driving to the big mall ("Wasted Acres") and damn near crashed. Pulled over at Wendy's for safety's sake.

Guess I didn't make myself clear: these people don't collect the dead deer immediately, or at least not all of them, as it's not unusual to get a good nosefull of several days old venison. And I suspect what removal is done is courtesy of the local coyotes, crows, and similar.
