I wonder how this idea will age. I haven't been to a bank branch in so long. Hell, I've written 5 checks in the last 2 years. I deposit the rare check with my phone or ATM. Why would I want to go to a branch? I took out my last mo

I guess I am confused a little. Are park rangers or maintainers actually going through "wild" areas and removing the carcasses? Why? I am not sure I would even think of such an area as "wild" then. Heck, I'm not sur
