Great find today as I was walking to my front door, an entire mouse! My house unfortunately isn’t one where I can just bring dead animals in, so I put it under a bush and I hope a scavenger doesn’t find it before it can fully decay.

Oh nice! You could hide it under an upturned flower pot or bury it. That might keep things from taking it. 

Something will find it, I can just about guarantee that. Dogs, cats, especially hungry squirrels, corvids, random “varmint” class critters, anything you can think of. Heck, large ants will dismantle it and steal the tiny bones. Put a flowerpot over it, with the hole uncovered to let flies in, and anchor the flowerpot firmly. I don’t advise burying it, mouse bones are too tiny and hard to recover.
