Dying mobs can destroy items

When a mob that can collect item dies it first drops some loot, but still can collect items afterwards.
Those items won't get a chance to be dropped again and just vanish. This includes the mobs own (rare) drops!

Steps to reproduce:
1. Find a mob that can collect items
2. Kill it in a way that it will be in range of some items (or his own loot)
3. Notice how it collects the items (the "dead" mob holds them) and disappears
