If you leave it as is another critter will tear into it,
dog, opossum, skunk... and it will stink again, if it
doesn't already.

One was hit in the road maybe 3/4 mile west of us late last
winter. The corpse laid in the ditch, never got buried. Just
recently some scavenger found it again and stirred it up. It
is still pretty potent smelling.

Makes me wonder if I just piled 6-8 inches of mulch over it how I'd fair.

If you don't mind the skunk smell (possibly) re-appearing go
ahead. The one I mentioned above, something found it, tore
into what was left and the skunk smell was pretty potent. I
was a bit surprised the scent/smell had a whole lot of punch
yet after ~5 months.

I don't find the odor particularly offensive, but I wouldn't
want to wear it
