    Never drink water from a stream that's being filtered through a dead cow! That's a saying of mine because it happened to me on a hunting trip. We ran out of water and came upon a nice stream. Looked it over a bit and it seemed good. I filled my canteen and after a big swig we commenced hunting again. We hiked up stream and topped a small hill. That's when we saw a decomposing cow with the stream flowing right through it. Not the best filtration system I've seen. It was a cold cup of coffee for sure.
