What Happens to Road Kill?
To find the answer, Mike hits the road with two of the Ohio Department of
Transportation's finest employees—they pick up road kill! Every year in the
state of Ohio, over 400,000 deer are killed by motorists. Two weeks without road
kill cleanup and most major interstate highways would be littered with dead
animals. After being picked up by the crew, the road kill is brought to a county
composting facility where it's turned into mulch for the garden. Now that's
recycling!
