Can I eat a chicken dead from unknown cause?

Our neighbours gave me a chicken of theirs which died yesterday. Can I make it into soup, or is that unsafe?
Thanks!

If you don't know how it died then it is unsafe.

Thanks, it was wishful thinking I suppose.

The same could apply to Road Kill which the French love. Was it killed because it was too slow through illness or just bad luck !

I think it had been found dead of unknown causes, not killed or run over.
