Rendering plants act as an animal disposal unit for dead
livestock. Instead of burning and disposing of dead
animals, they are converted to animal feeds. I visited the
Avon plant in 1993 and witnessed this process, where
nothing is wasted.
Area farmers and ranchers are invited to drop off any
dead farm animal. The animals are crushed up in large
mulchers and poured into enormous high pressure vats
where they are cooked into multi-animal stew. The stew
is further processed until it is packaged and sold to area
farmers as livestock feed.
I've witnessed pigs, goats, cows and horses brought to
rendering plants. The animals were in various conditions.
Some had been dead for over 24 hours, yet were still
rendered into livestock feed. None of these animals are
checked for disease or illness before they enter the food
chain. Shockingly, many cows that been found
"mutilated", ( missing various glands, tissue and organs)
were brought to these rendering factories and processed
into food for their still living relatives. I was shocked,
but unlike Great Britain which has had protections against
such practices since 1989, there are no such guidelines
here in the United States.

It's worse than you imagine. We pay for an animal pickup service
for research animals that have been sacrified per protocol and perfused
with formaldehyde/glutaraldehyde, for electron microscopy. They are,
shall we say, embalmed. Fixed. And you know what? They go to the
same place all other dead animals go, from the euthanized products of
the dog pound, which are sacred in California, and forbidden to
researchers to use, to your dead horse in the field. All rendered unto
Caeser. Made into soap. Lipstick. Lampshades. Perhaps eaten by
Chinese. I don't know. I don't even want to know.
