A few of you got it right! Others informed me that the "prize money" wasn't high enough to merit their guess. At any rate, the Unidentified Dead Object that we encountered on our walk was indeed a dead beaver. A very freshly dead beaver who appeared to have simply grown weary of life, laid down by his dam and expired.
Here's the original picture. See the big front tooth right under the stick? (We're holding his head up with a stick.)
Yes, I let my child touch the beaver tail. After all, we're homeschoolers so this counts as Science, right?!
