This is one of important factor that needs our attention as it is usually not considered specially during the Eid-ul-Adha occasion.

Here are some general guidelines on how to handle and dispose of an animal carcass:

1. Ensure safety: Wear protective gloves, a mask, and any other necessary safety gear to avoid direct contact with the carcass. This is especially important if the cause of death is unknown.
2. Contact the relevant authorities: Depending on the situation and your location, you may need to contact local authorities such as animal control, a wildlife conservation agency, or a veterinarian. They can provide guidance on how to proceed and may assist with the removal of the carcass if necessary.
3. Secure the carcass: If the animal is in a public area or poses a risk to public health or safety, it’s important to secure the area and prevent access by other animals or people. This can be done by placing barriers, fencing, or signs around the carcass.
4. Proper disposal: There are several options for disposing of an animal carcass, and the best method depends on local regulations, the size of the animal, and the cause of death. Here are some common options:
   • Burial: If allowed in your area, burial can be an option for smaller animals. Dig a hole deep enough to prevent scavengers from accessing the carcass and cover it with soil.
   • Incineration: Incineration is an effective method for larger animals, but it requires specialized equipment. Contact local authorities or rendering services to arrange for proper incineration if this is available.
   • Rendering: In some cases, you can contact rendering services that will collect the carcass and process it into useful byproducts such as animal feed or biofuels. These services may be available for both large and small animals.
   • Contact local authorities: If you’re unsure about the proper disposal method or if the animal is on public property, contact local authorities for guidance and assistance.
5. Maintain personal hygiene: After handling the carcass or being in the vicinity, wash your hands thoroughly with soap and warm water. Clean and disinfect any tools or equipment used during the process.

If these guidelines are taken well-cared, then probably there won’t be any disease outspread in the locality. Provided not just the authorities but the people of their designated areas also take care of these matters.
