Carrion is not wasted...multiple predators and scavengers consume it and that's assuming they did what you suggest...which is a rare occurrence venison is too revered and the carcass has inherent value. What you suggest is one of the main argument anti hunters use to disparage the practice!!

Deer carcasses lying around attract all manner of large predators as well as loose dogs. My family has lived in an area where this has been a problem. Do not leave them lying around, you’ll draw coyotes and loose dogs. The carcass will be dragged all over the place. It will end up in the yards of people who do not care to have to clean up after inconsiderate hunters. If you’re pro-hunting you’ll agree. Creating enemies of people who are not opposed to hunting due to leaving a mess behind for them to deal with is not a good thing to do. Dumping the remains on the side of the road is another stupid thing that lazy so-called hunters will do. I’ve known three people whose dogs managed to get out to get to those things and be killed in traffic. Very bad PR. Police your own, shame them into doing right. Or, marginal people will be persuaded into the anti-hunting camp. I’m seeing it firsthand.
