Decomposition stages as a clue for estimating the post-mortem interval in carcasses and providing accurate bird collision rates.

Results Decomposition score of large birds (i.e., hens) across islands and throughout seasons and days after fresh carcasses were placed in the field was a highly explainable phenomenon (79.9% of the variance accounted for by the fixed effects, plus 8.9% attributable to random effects, in a highly significant three-way random intercepts and random slopes mixed model: χ 2 = 380.6, df = 31, P < 0.001 derived from parametric bootstrap).
