Merle,
Well, that's just irrelevant.
In very big cities -- where most of the population, and pets live -- people
have pets "put-down" at Vets. And rescue centers there, or in nearby suburbs
"generate" a lot of dead animals per week, by merciful euthanizing of old,
frail, or unhealthy pets.
"Rendering" is a good internet search-topic; it will tell you about this
component of pet foods.
The high-temperature anaerobic de-polymerization rendering process reduces the
pet bodies to basic components; I doubt you could tell what came from dogs and
what came from cats, afterwards. But then it is all turned into dog food and
cat food.
Remember "Soylent Green"? ;-)
Some people want the rendering of dogs and cats and other domestic animal
bodies to stop, and they don't want to feed these cat and dog materials to
their cats and dogs.
Just a little heads-up about what's quietly going on.
