'The intersection,' the pilot responded. The airport closed the runway for a short time while crews cleared the remains, finding at least two carcasses. The plane was able to taxi and park without further incident. No passengers or crew were injured in the incident, the airline said. 'The pilots need to come down and look at this, if you can just give them a shout and they can come – yeah,' an airport worker on the ground told the tower in the LiveATC recording. The plane involved remains at Kodiak and has not flown since the strike, according to flight tracking website FlightAware. Aircraft collide with animals every day at airports across the country, with more than 22,000 strikes reported last year alone, according to the U.S. FAA's wildlife strike database. Planes at Kodiak Airport hit animals five times last year, all of them birds, including two bald eagles. Across the U.S. last year, planes hit deer more than two dozen times.
