BODYFARM-STORMING REVOLUTION

The stages can vary in length depending on conditions such as temperature (generally bodies in warmer environments decay faster), whether the body is buried or exposed to water or air, and the type of bacteria present. Each phase attracts specific insect activity (for example flies first, then beetles) if a body is found within a few weeks the development and age of maggots can be used to estimate the date of death.

“Dreadlord” Bodyfarm

BODYFARM-UNBROKEN

A body farm is a research facility where decomposition is studied in a range of settings and environments. The aim is to get a better understanding of how bodies decompose. By putting corpses outside in different environments, researchers can study how they decay and break down to understand more about the decompositional changes. The research can be used for medical, legal and educational purposes. When the bodies have been studied outside the skeletons are collected and cleaned and used for later research. The original body farm is at located at The University of Tennessee. It was first started in 1981 by forensic anthropologist Dr William M Bass. It consists of a 2.5-acre wooded plot surround by razor wire fencing. At any one time, there will be a series of corpses in different settings decomposing throughout the facility. Some of the conditions studied include being locked in the trunk of a car or fully submerged underwater. Observations have helped many forensics cases. Over 100 bodies are donated to the facility every year, some people pre-register before their deaths and others are donated by families or medical examiners. The Tennessee Body Farm is additionally used in the training of law enforcement in scene-of-the-crime skills. Seven body farms exist across the USA, all of which are currently at universities. Similar facilities also exist in Canada and Australia.
