Forgive me if I am asking a question that has been answered, but a cursory search of the site has given me very limited information.
Is it commonly accepted practice to use human placental remains as a scent source in training search and rescue? Most of my knowledge in tracking comes on the Schutzhund field, or tracking a fleeing suspect, neither of which necessitates use of human tissue in such a manner. I was confronted with the question by a fellow police officer, and was left clueless, as it is a concept I had neither heard nor imagined of prior to being posed the question.
Any assistance on sources of information would be appreciated. I don't necessarily plan to lay down a track for my Mal in this manner, but the knowledge of the process and theory behind the use of this material could put another tool in the dog training toolbox!
