Saw it during my morning amble. I first thought it was alive (& fine) & was busy trying to make sure the dogs didn’t get close. Then I noticed the NECK. Yikes.
I wasn’t anxious to spend too much time looking. It was NOT pleasant.
I initially thought it must have got hit by a vehicle (since it was on the side of a fairly well travelled road). I am NOT sure. Yes, some of the shell is missing. Looks like something ate a chunk of the next. That could have been after it died. I don’t know. This was the only picture I took. I didn’t want to spend too much time around it. Plus I had the dogs (who luckily were totally uninterested in it (possibly because it was dead)).
