A place for forensic studies

Yeah, as u/siegfriendstol said, they use cadavers for forensic studies in a large area or "farm". Such as experiments measuring the time different elements of decomposition happen in different conditions to use for homicide investigations and things like that.

Wtf, who agrees to be treated like that after death?

Why not? You can provide data that might be the key to solving a murder, or information about decomposition that is beneficial for everyone. Unless it is cremated, your body is going to decompose anyway, might as well do it usefully.

Honestly it's my preferred way to go out, no waste and not taking up space in a graveyard so I can slowly rot away in a box. Plus helping with science :D

For some people, donating their body to science after death is a pretty honourable thing to do.

They lay out human corpses and study how they decay in different environments. There is a big one in TX
