Something Rotten: A Fresh Look at Roadkill
Roadkill. It's a word that conjures up images of death and decay, of something that is dirty and dangerous. But what if roadkill was more than just a nuisance? What if it was actually a vital part of the ecosystem?
In his new book, Something Rotten: A Fresh Look at Roadkill, author Jonathan E. Brady argues that roadkill is not something to be feared or ignored. Instead, it is a valuable resource that can teach us a lot about the natural world.

Brady takes readers on a journey through the ecosystem of roadkill, from the scavengers that feed on it to the plants that grow around it. Along the way, he challenges our assumptions about roadkill and reveals its surprising beauty and importance.
The Scavengers
Roadkill is a feast for scavengers. Vultures, coyotes, foxes, and other animals are attracted to the smell of decaying flesh. They play an important role in the ecosystem by cleaning up roadkill and preventing the spread of disease.
The Plants
Roadkill also has a positive impact on plants. The decaying flesh of roadkill releases nutrients into the soil, which can help plants to grow. In some cases, roadkill can even create new habitats for plants.
The Beauty of Roadkill
Roadkill may not be pretty, but it can be beautiful in its own way. The colors and textures of decaying flesh can be fascinating to look at. And the way that roadkill attracts scavengers and plants can create a sense of wonder and awe.
The Importance of Roadkill
Roadkill is not just a nuisance. It is a vital part of the ecosystem. Scavengers and plants rely on roadkill for food and nutrients. And roadkill can even create new habitats for plants. By understanding the importance of roadkill, we can learn to appreciate it and to protect it.
