Shine The Way

Should you see a dead animal on the side of the road, you can call Shine The Way on 021 858 1255 and give them the approximate location.  They will make sure that the animal is removed and at least, even in death, have some dignity left instead of ending up with 100's of cars riding over the dead body until it becomes part of the tar. If you are not CT based, perhaps they will know of a similar group in your area.
