''Activate a shovel, right-click the corpse and select "bury".''
Burying is generally designed for the disposal of a corpse. A corpse will attract carnivores so therefore it is a respectful act to bury an animal after you kill it. It's a good idea to [[butcher]] the animal with a [[butchering knife]] before you bury it. Also, remember to bury your own corpse after you pick up it's inventory.
