The BBC reports that a House Sparrow (Passer domesticus) that was shot for knocking over 23,000 dominoes at a world record attempt in the Netherlands will be preserved and kept on display at Rotterdam's Natural History Museum.
The bird almost spoiled a televised world record attempt before it was killed with an air rifle.
The shooting caused a public outcry. Animal rights groups condemned the bird's killing last month and a website was erected in its honour.
On Friday, the bird's killer was fined for shooting a protected species.
The sparrow is known as Dodemus, or the Domino Sparrow. A tribute website for Dodemus has been set up here. Information from the Rotterdam Natural History Museum about Dodemus can be found here
