Does the beak decompose before the bones?

What duck carcasses tell us?

I'm asking this because now that we are told that T-Rex had feathers... wait a minute! It walked on two legs, had feathers, tiny "hands", the beak is possibly decomposed early ... that's a giant duckling!

The skulls and and general bone formation aren't similar so they are compatible.
