Safer Means Of Disposing Of Mad Cows

MissMarvel writes "A company claims to have a safer way to dispose of cows infected with Mad Cow Disease. It says that by using the kinds of chemicals that go into a drain-clearing product such as Drano, they can safely break down the suspected disease-causing proteins, known as prions. The bodies of infected dead cattle are usually burned to destroy proteins these brain-wasting compounds."

Or dump toxins into the water table by dousing the cows with Drano...

If you'd read the fucking article, you'd see that their device is like a big pressure cooker. How is that going to contaminate groundwater?
