There I was, minding my own business while setting up lights under a house and getting ready to work when THIS jumped out at me.
Well, it didn’t exactly jump in the literal sense as much as the figurative one. Regardless, it was still scary to stumble on it. Wouldn’t you agree? Like all the trash we find, while working under houses around Los Angeles, we removed it.
But, like a bad dream, it haunted me. “What is this thing?” The teeth look too big to be those of a common house cat. I’m no expert at dead things found under houses and that’s why I’m turning to you. Can anyone tell me what this thing is? How long it’s been dead? Where are the back legs (if it had any)? You can also see inside the body as well and see it’s ribcage if that helps with decoding the mystery.
Where is it now? It currently resides in my garage in a green plastic trash bag. Although, I’m not sure for how long. My wife discovered it today (the screams where heard for miles) and we haven’t had time to have “The Talk” as to why it’s there and how quickly she’ll want it removed.
I’m thinking about saving it and using it as a decoration at Halloween time.
If anyone wants to borrow my treasure let me know.
I’ll be waiting to find out if anyone in cyberspace can help me figure out what my find is.

Three responses? In a year and a half? What the hell, people!? I want to know what the damn thing is TOO! Somebody’s not telling what they know. That ain’t right.
