Dude must have watched him some Con Air. Sweet movie, BTW. John Malkovich and Steve Buscemi as murderous badasses, and Nic Cage with greasy dreads. What else do you need? Don't you dare say a script.

A New Scientist note (points to PNAS paper):
Thanks for very interesting article. btw. I really enjoyed reading this article, can I put it in site: http://www.hipotekaplus.pl/kredyt_mieszkaniowy
I was under the impression that it's fairly unusual for dogs to eat their owners corpses after death.
I hate to say it, but aren't forensic science journals sort of like cheating? Half the articles, you can just hear someone going "and you won't BELIEVE what happened to THIS one."
Yes, the dog one sounded unusual to me too. I wasn't aware that even wild dogs would eat fallen pack members?
@LeftWingFox:
In my forensic training, we were repeatedly told that dogs of dead owners will generally wait a long time before beginning to consume said owner. I'm not sure whether it's been tested, but it was taken as a decent rule-of-thumb starting point that a dog-chewed decedent had been down for at least a couple days.
Cats, on the other hand, begin to dine pretty much immediately after the first missed feeding.
Hey, the poor animals do eventually get hungry, you know.
