A fairly long read but an interesting one.

Who Killed Nugget II? Solving The Death Of Southern Miss's Mascot. (Deadspin)
The 1992 death of Nugget II, the University of Southern Mississippi's Golden Eagle, is cloaked in mystery. A federal investigation and autopsy revealed two possible causes of death: The eagle's body contained lead shotgun pellets, and it suffered from malnutrition. But no blame was ever assigned, and the case went cold. Until now.

I truly hope that this haunts the irresponsible jackass that did this.

a human mascot is so much easier to "handle". they can feed themselves, and aren't imprisoned for life.
