There was a guy who decapitated himself with a drone just a few years ago. I think you vastly underestimate how easily carbon fiber propellers going at full speed cut through things.

With an RC Heli, not a quad/octocopter "drone". It had 28 inch (700mm) carbon fiber blades.

Here's hoping the birds are smart enough to tell the difference between quadcopters and RC helis, otherwise we're going to see some spectacular bird-fragging incidents.
