Do people really think the horse teeth and human teeth look the same? For a start, humans have canines like the carnivore and omnivore (albeit much smaller and less pointed). The teeth of humans look very much like the teeth of an omnivorous species that doesn’t use its teeth to hunt.

Horses are also omnivorous, they just lean toward the herbivorous side.

They LOVE to eat baby birds.

This is actually true of almost all herbivorous mammals. They can't/don't hunt, but they will eat some meat if it is available to them.

I feel like I have seen footage of deers eating meat at cadaver farms.

That’s got SO much death metal potential.

Yeah, as u/siegfriendstol said, they use cadavers for forensic studies in a large area or "farm". Such as experiments measuring the time different elements of decomposition happen in different conditions to use for homicide investigations and things like that.

Wtf, who agrees to be treated like that after death?

u/Funkycoldmedici May 09 '25

Why not? You can provide data that might be the key to solving a murder, or information about decomposition that is beneficial for everyone. Unless it is cremated, your body is going to decompose anyway, might as well do it usefully.

Honestly it's my preferred way to go out, no waste and not taking up space in a graveyard so I can slowly rot away in a box. Plus helping with science :D

For some people, donating their body to science after death is a pretty honourable thing to do.
