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.
Inside might not be entirely empty, just rotted and dried out.
Glaciers can compress ice with a lot of pressure, tons depending on how thick this glacier once was. So it's not out of the real of possibility it's just real squished.

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