What did I find in my backyard? I'm scared!

This weekend I found this lying right in the middle of my yard:


It appears to be some sort of dead animal that is severely decomposed. It kind of looks like a bat, but it's way too big and has a huge leg bone. It could be a rabbit or small turkey, but how did it get there? My wife thinks a snake regurgitated it after digesting the flesh. If that's true, I'm not stepping foot outside ever again because that's one big-ass snake!!! Do you have any idea what this could be and what killed it?

  2. I'm thinking it is a rabbit... maybe other than the snake theory it could have been dead somewhere and some animal scavenged and ended up dragging it to the middle of your yard.

    Making me think twice about walking around my property barefooted.

  6. you obviously aren't spending enough time outside in your yard where interlopers can bring carion undetected. Mrs. Boris needs a gun & a watch schedule for the overnights 'cause if we send a "kitten" like you, an opening to the darkest, deepest regions of the Netherworld will be opened sealing our certain doom

  7. Okay I think its a big bird! Or a rabbit but I'm pretty sure its a bird. I also believe that a bear or larger animal that killed it and somehow brought it to your yard. I would be scared to walk outside to if I saw that thing too. But you'll figure it out somehow!

  10. That was my thought too that it was a frog. It looks like a frog. I thank the frog jumped in your yard you saw it and you didn't know what it was.

  11. I'm into Cryptozoology and got excited when I heard you say it was a Chupacabra, but that is a frickin' Chicken!You can tell by the leg bone....delicious little leg bone.... plus the butt is too long to be a rabbit. ~ Jody
