We never had confirmation that Buckbeak was dead.  "There was a jumble
of male voices, a silence, and then, without warning, the unmistakable
swish and thud of an axe."  Then before Hermione and Harry can go see
Hagrid, Scabbers runs off.  It turns out later on that Macnair had
swung his axe into the fence.  In the film, he smashed a pumpkin.
