Am most sorry to hear of your loss! How shocking and heartbreaking to discover that! I know it is just instinct that they do that, but I would have felt like doing more to that female than just taking her "meal" away.
I lost one of my young pyro males this spring right after brumation, but not due to cannibalization, he just up and died and he was my favorite male.

Also checked out your blog; great stuff!
