Frankly, after 20 yrs of marriage to a hunter/trapper, I've lost count of the dead things I've run across in the freezer. For the most part, I've gotten used to it, except for when it is just a fur. Then it is soft and freaks me out every time. There was a raccoon fur in my freezer for almost a year. That one about did me in. There have been whole fish, whole birds, etc. I've actually shipped a dead bird through the mail once to Cornell for necropsy. That was pretty freaky. I also used to ship a lot of live birds through the mail. Those were always interesting conversation starters at the post office.
