Predator Culture, Biology And Technology

So I've been thinking about a way to incorporate this anatomy and physiology discussion into the general knowledge base for a fictional story. The best idea I can come up with is a pred ship malfunctions and crashes killing its pilot but not before the US government picks it up on radar and tracks it to the crash sight. Here they recover a predator body and bring it to a secret location where they have a team of doctors do an alien autopsy thus giving us a great deal more insight into the predator as an organism.

Any thoughts on this? I know it takes away from the mystique and all but I think in a way, having something in front of you, in the brightest possible light that you have no hope of understanding is as scary or more so than the ambiguity of the beast that hides in the shadows, masking its identity.
