Dead animals eating food

I toss my dead outside, and I happened to have an extra feeding trough outside near them. Today I noticed the trough is empty, so I suspect, the dead are still actively eating.

Fix'd a bug that was causing dead animals that have experienced a blood moon to breed long after they died. Dead animals will now only breed occasionally during blood moons, not long after.
And we had a blood moon not so long ago , maybe they ate at that moment ?
