Wow! I've had a couple of messed up stillborns over the years, some that apparently had strangulated themselves with their umbilical or ones that have eviscerated themselves by coming out of the egg with the umbilical attached, pulling their organs out; but I have never seen anything as bizarre as your incident!



It's so weird that it's in two pieces and yet both ends look like they had tried to heal by closing up. It must've been a slow constrictive type of amputation that caused this to happen this way.



Sad but fascinating. Thanks for sharing!
