  • Nearly 1,000 birds died Wednesday night after crashing into the windows at McCormick Place Lakeside Center, likely due to a combination of the convention center's bright lights and the rainy weather. The birds met their death while making their migratory journey south.

      No one should it was a freak accident and they are wild birds. This happens so rarely that building developers don't take it into account. Buildings are made to protect people not birds. I agree more should be done to prevent this from happening again but if the birds aren't domestic then it is not punishable by law.

      For study. Basically, they'll get a count of each species involved, as well as age and sex. They might undergo a necropsy to determine more specific details about their death. Then, because they were sent to a museum, they'll be freeze dried and put into permanent storage for future research use. Lots of genetic and molecular work can be done after that point. They can figure out where they migrate to and from, what they ate while they were there, levels of toxins and pollutants in the area, etc.
