How to dispose of a newt?

My fire-bellied newt has died. :( Since they are considered toxic how do I dispose of the body properly? I don't want to bury him because something could dig up the body and eat it. They have enough poison in them to kill an adult human. Also, I don't want to flush it and poison the water supply. Do the toxins dissipate after death? What do I do?

    Hi,

    Like the first answerer said, definitely burn it! If you don't want to do that, then bury it in a locked box of some sort so no-one can get their hands on it.
