Based on the wounds, Mutschmann said, it appears that a bird pecks into the toad with its beak between the amphibian's chest and abdominal cavity, and the toad puffs itself up as a natural defense mechanism.

 

But, because the liver is missing and there's a hole in the toad's body, the blood vessels and lungs burst and the other organs ooze out, he said.

 

As gruesome as it sounds, it isn't actually that unusual, he said.

 

"It's not unique — it's in a city area, and that makes it spectacular," Mutschmann said. "Of course, it's something very dramatic."

Crows are evil.

Crows are evil.

 

I've felt crows were evil, since I first saw Hitchcock's "The Birds".
