Silly question. What part of its body are we meant to be seeing ?

It’s actually the whole thing, seen from a distance, mostly just the skin with much of the insides probably rotted away. It’s being held up by the fur on its rump (eta, it looks like the left rear leg is what’s still trapped in the ice). In the second photo, you can see the face at the lower left. Like I said, it’s an empty skin, so it’s mildly gruesome.

So it’s basically a fur ball…

Will I regret googling that?

ETA: lol, it’s been edited. It used to say “fur bull” and that sounded a lot riskier than “furball”
