Animals lately seen (1 of 3): Squirrel.

The other day when I was out walking and I was going by this garden by the edge of the local high school, I see this big oblong brown lump going half off the sidewalk and into the grass at the edge of the garden.

And, it turns out to be a (large) (dead) (brown) squirrel that might have seemed bigger than it actually was since it seemed slightly bloated from death -- a few flies were flying around its slightly gaping mouth and scrunched up eyes -- and as I pass by it, I see that where its lower left leg should be, there's just a small bloody mat rising a little bit off the lower part of the squirrel's belly.
