I found today a dead raccoon on my backyard, read on my town web page that do not bring it to the landfill and provided a phone number to call animal control.

I called animal control and they said that because it’s on my private property I have to take care myself, ok, then I asked what do I do, where do can I disposal it, and after waiting 15 min on the phone the lady said “I don’t know, can’t give any information about that”, lol, I asked I don’t think I should put this in the garbage bin. She said I don’t know.

Called a private animal removal company and asked for $385 + tax, WTF!!

What should I do bury the poor animal?

if your into recycling go for a drive in the country and toss it :)
other animals will eat it, the bugs will benefit and so will the soil
 
That has happened to me a couple of times and what I did was buried it in my backyard. I made sure to bury it where my dog couldn't dig him up.
 
Honestly my one neighbor back yard is like a wild jungle, I throw it over the fence, trying not to laugh my ass off while I'm doing it. If my wife sees me she say "sorbate" and then starts to laugh so she has to leave.

My cat brings home dead shit all the time.

But if not then I would drive something big out to the country like Bull says. It will be taken care of.
 
Dogs just dragged home a fox the other day, I just tossed the remains out in the pasture. In the past after trying to get my boss to stuff a badger which he didn't do I put it in a garbage bag and threw it in a garbage bin.
 
Just bag it and take it for a drive... once out of the general city limits pull over and toss it in the ditch. Done and done.

That's for bigger animals. For stuff like rats I just toss em in the bushes in my front yard for other animals to eat. Yum yum.
 
Funny story, when I was 10 my dad killed a muskrat in the barn, so I asked him if he would skin it so I could tan the hide, just like I saw on tv, like the Inuits did.

So my dad did. I scraped all the fat off, coated it in salt, then chewed the leather part of the hide to make it soft, just like the one toothed Inuit lady did on tv. It had a strange taste, that even right now typing this out I can recall what it tasted like. I’m all fucking happy chewing on this damn thing for likely a week or two, my parents just letting me do this as I watch tv, lol. I guess since it was salted heavily and fresh, they figured I wouldnt get sick, which I didn’t. It was really soft though, I had chewed off all the fat and made the leather soft.

Eventually I turned that piece of muskrat skin into a realky ugly ass looking Muff (hey I was trying to sew likely for my first or second time) for my little (like 2 year old) sister to use to keep her hands warm. I don’t think my parents ever let her use it, I believe my mother thought it was gross, but I was so proud of what I did.
