Who Cleans Up Road Kill in Cedar Rapids and Linn County
A Gazette column explains disposal duties for road killed animals across city, county, and state roads. Cedar Rapids Animal Shelter handles city pickups, Cedar Valley Humane Society cremates county road casualties, and DNR officers say state highway carcasses are removed quickly or given to landfills if health concerns arise. Deer meat may pass to tax supported institutions or be consumed by Ay bodies if properly inspected and butchered within an hour. Coyotes and birds also scavenge leftovers as officials seek public help in cleanup.
