This reminds me of the awareness efforts by the Nature History museum in Rotterdam with the celebration of Dead Duck Day [1].
The case study's[2] abstract documents:
_On 5 June 1995 an adult male mallard (Anas platyrhynchos) collided with the glass façade of the Natuurmuseum Rotterdam and died. An other drake mallard raped the corpse almost continuously for 75 minutes._
Quite an interesting—albeit disturbing—read.
