I was trying to think of something to make a bearded clam joke, but nothing I came up with was very funny…

Something about the smell of unwashed clams being strong enough to sicken the neighbors.
But that’s what this article is about.

But what happened?
FWIW, we had a fox drag something under our screened-in porch last summer, and left it there to rot. We couldn’t get it out, so it just turned into flies. Based on the one or two feathers near the deck, it was probably a wild turkey. 1 turkey. It took a full month for the smell to go away, and there was a prodigious quantity of flies to be killed every day for 3 weeks.
I can’t imagine what a few truckloads of clam meat on a road would smell like, especially in the sun and rain. Yes, it’ll probably be done in a few months, but at the cost of basically never being able to open your windows.

Did the town raise a stink?

Yes, but the difference being that the turkey carcass was relatively well protected under your porch, this is in the open air and direct sun. I’m guessing it will be all but unnoticeable by the end of august, unless you’re laying out in the middle of the road sunbathing.
of course it “smells like bodies”… because it IS bodies! little clam bodies!

My immediate thought was that he did this to dissuade people from using the road or something. But maybe that’s not the case?
Oof. *Writhing.

It would have helped if the article clarified whether they were bearded clams or not…
