Frozen beef reserves to be dynamited?

The news is somewhat disturbing:

Federal forest officials want visitors of a Colorado hot springs to be very careful about what's lurking inside a remote cabin nearby: Frozen cows. Rangers believe the cows wandered into the cabin near the popular Conundrum Hot Springs during a snowstorm but couldn't find their way out. Air Force Academy cadets found their frozen carcasses while snowshoeing in late March.
What, in your opinion, would be the first thought of a warm-blooded reader? Steaks, of course. But the Rangers think in other terms:
Rangers want the carcasses gone before they thaw. Removal options include explosives or burning down the cabin.
Blowing up tons of perfectly good beef? Not only it is a waste, but it will probably become a disaster on the scale of the famous and hilarious Oregon Whale Explosion:



Oh well...

You mean its carnivorous part, of course...

 Interesting, although I hardly saw their point in doing what is done in the army quite routinely...
