What the hell is this [Disturbing Images]?

[Simulacrum]

My british friend's mother found this in their garden. This...thing...has been in an area of a garden that hasn't been cut in 5 years, so it could have been dead here a while ago, rotting since. I have no idea what it is, but my current theory is some sort of snake-centipede hybrid. Please help me identify it.

Size: 80 cm long about
Location: Sussex, England

I refuse to accept that this post isn't a troll, because my mind isn't able to deal with the alternative being true right now...

Snake+centipede hybrid?? Wat? My brain.

[Garneth]

Here's another angle. I'll post this pic in the OP now.

I'm not trolling. The snake-centipede thing may have seemed a bit stupid to say, but I'm genuinely interested in finding out wtf this is.

Without knowing the size (that would have been a good info to supply), I'd guess a fox or cat..
Location (as in country) would also be nice, as it also rules out a lot of animals..

Cat? Are we looking at the same picture? Thats doesnt even remotly look like a cat

[Tierbook]

now that i think about it, that thing has really clean teeth

[Grummgug]

It has remarkably good teeth for being british.

I work at a grocer. I assure you the things we sell look completely normal and recognizable ^_^

Pretty sure it's a dead dog without legs & ribs.

Trying to do a size ratio with grass this looks like a very small skeleton. The teeth as well are incredibly clean. Were I to guess this is a very young dead animal that simply had scavengers have their way with it.

I'm not sure whether to feel insulted or laugh, I'm going to going to go with insulted.

>:O

Is that one of it's arm bones in front of it's head or is that something else?

It is, I think. My Shibas have the exact same shape of the mouth & teeth. Smaller, so maybe someone had an Akita?

Trying to compare the skull to grass blades I'd be surprised if it was more than 4 inches long. This is a pretty small skeleton, Akitas are bigger.

[Lumineus]

It's either a fox or a small dog, most likely a fox. The skull isn't square enough to be a badger's. Also, the canines are much too narrow at the base, badgers have really thick teeth.

I wonder where the hell its legs and ribcage went...? I mean there's not even any trace of a pelvis or shoulders.

Scavengers.

some sort of snake-centipede hybrid.

Not with teeth like that. o.O Suggest maybe looking up images of skulls for local animals that would be capable of having teeth like that.

Whatever it is, scavengers may have just made off with it's limbs.
