The UT Forensic Anthropology Center is home to what has been dubbed the ‘Body Farm.’ WBIR-TV Channel 10 took an inside look at the center, which is home to over 1,800 skeletons. At any given time, the Body Farm, officially called the Anthropology Research Facility, holds 150-200 bodies. Donors are placed specifically and with purpose to mimic true crimes, and forensic scientists come from all over the world to have the chance to study there.
The Body Farm was established by Bill Bass in 1987.
