Cremation is not mandatory with euthanized animals. You chose good areas for burial and over time any drugs would break down and dissipate. I think you made a beautiful choice.
Shelters and clinics that have many bodies to dispose of are a different matter. They kill hundreds of animals and it would be dangerous to put that much pentobarbital into the environment, especially since they do it over and over again.
It never occurred to me that euthanized pets could end up in food until this post. This is wrong on so many levels.
It is no wonder we have so many food scares and food recalls. There are so many bad practices when it comes to food.
We have the knowledge and technology to make things very safe. Instead we make them unsafe on a much larger scale.
We can cause death and illness from one batch of food to hundreds even thousands.
Why doesn't our progress feel like progress.
