Rotten Chicken!

Man, I found about five of these big old Chickens today, but I left the other four.
I spotted them off the road, under a big old tree, in a cemetery.
Now, here is a question.
This thing stinks to high heaven, a nauseating smell that I've never smelled before, especially on a chicken.
Chicken smell earthly, and heavenly,and this one smells like shit.
I know it's not rotten, and I find them on this particular tree every season, but I have had none smell this wretched before.
Is it safe to say that this is inedible,and I should just toss it?
I sure would hate to toss such a big meal away, but man this thing stinks!

Maybe the tree is feeding on the bodies

it's not morbid it's fact of life when trees are growing on bodies, I don't believe that they are to selective.

So, you weren't joking, and do you think that's even possible?
Man, I still have that beast sitting outside.
My area sucks for mushrooms, so I really hate to throw that out, but the smell is awful!
I've actually eaten them out of that cemetery, agaricus too, so I'm having bad thoughts entering my mind right now

No, I wasn't joking, lots of old bodies have been found under trees that have been up rooted in storms, roots can penetrate concrete vaults and I'm sure fluids leak. There's an old cemetery down the road from me where I have seen open Graves with trees growing through them, you could make out all the hand finger and arm bones in one grave and a few other ones had the legs and feet exposed but I'm sure there was only a thin layer of soil covering the rest, it reminds me of how rocks work their way out of the soil with rain or other water sources. Called the county and they filled them up with concrete and made it look decent.
edit: 8f you keep going to cemeteries you may witness a grave actually settle where the c vault fails and dirt rushes in and the ground surface drops several inches.

Oh man, that's insane!
It seems like they would try to rebury those bodies that are exposed.
I have actually seen graves here sunk in a few inches, and I suppose they just throw more soil on the top.
I'm just going to throw it out tomorrow, it's just not worth it

Someone I knew was excavating out around a gravesite But they said they were removing this tree I guess is what they were doing.. Anyway they said the tree roots had completed surrounded this casket and had grown into it. I guess it was getting nutrients from it.
