Learning Activity – Mini Report
The body of a pit bull terrier was found in an empty hall on Sydney Rd, Brunswick.
Maggots were found concentrated in the neck and the region behind the shoulder.
The windows were closed, although the open curtains allowed sunlight to enter, and
the air conditioner had been left at 20OC.
1. Approximately how long has this animal been dead?
2. What effect, if any, do the outside temperatures have on your estimation of time
of death?
3. How does the fact that the windows were closed relate to the species of flies
you observed in and around the corpse?
4. Do you suspect foul play?
