Forensic scientists caught a deer munching on a human carcass for the first time ever

It’s gruesome, but could help investigations

[ex0skeletal]

In July 2014, researchers left a body in a wooded part of FARF. They wanted to learn about how different scavengers leave their marks on human remains, so they set up a motion-sensitive camera to see who would stop by.

On January 5, 2015, the camera caught a glimpse of a young white-tailed deer standing near the skeleton with a human rib bone in its mouth. Then it happened again on January 13—the camera caught a deer with another rib sticking out of its mouth like a cigar. It’s not clear whether it was the same deer in both cases, but it’s certainly possible first one came back for seconds.

It is not, however, the first time we’ve seen deer violating their vegetarian diets. In fact, they’re known to have a taste for blood. Previously they’ve been spotted eating fish, bats, and dead rabbits. Scientists think deer and other herbivores may occasionally seek out flesh to get minerals—such as phosphorus, salt, and calcium—that may be missing from their regular diets, especially in wintertime.

The Crow and the Snake’, an illustration by John Vernon Lord in Aesop’s Fables, Jonathan Cape, 1989.

The Crow and the Snake

A crow in great want of food saw a Serpent asleep in a sunny nook, and flying down, greedily seized him.  The Serpent, turning about, bit the Crow with a mortal wound;  the Crow in the agony of death exclaimed:  “O unhappy me! who have found in that which I deemed a happy windfall the source of my destruction.”

Moral: The covetous who grasp at everything without considering the outcome are liable to a nasty surprise.

I was worried that the cleaner might have lost her job over this, but apparently the company that employs her stood up for her and said she was just doing her job. 

Now I can comfortably lol.

If modern art is supposed to challenge the viewer by posing the question, “What is art, really?”, it needs to be prepared for viewers to answer that question.

Art: what is art, really? Cleaning Lady: not this

[cumaeansibyl]

I’ve said it before: if scattered trash is a legitimate art installation, then cleaning it up is legitimate performance art and she should also get thousands of dollars for her incisive commentary
