I had a friend that thought he would render some bear fat down and use it on his boots.I don't know what he did wrong,but when he brought his boots into the tent,I gagged.
Same bear,he cut up and put it in his freezer. The kids were playing in the garage where the freezer was one day and must have unplugged it. About two weeks later, he had cause to open the freezer. He called me quick to help him get it out of the garage and it was really putrid.I have smelled dead humans that were pretty ripe,but they wouldn't compare to that smell. We tried scrubbing it out but no way could we get the smell out.The freezer ended up in the county dump the next day.
This all occurred in about 1967 or so. I have had an aversion to bears since then. I still remember that smell.
had the same thing happen, but worse than rotten bear is rotten Salmon. lost a freezer to that mishap.
