fauxkill

1. What appears to be an animal killed by being struck by a motor vehicle but is not. Usually a piece a rag, wad of paper, or clump of mud.

2. Slang One that has apparently failed or been defeated but is still worthy of consideration

Maura said, "Look out for the dead animal in the road", I replied it's only "fauxkill".
