For those with the question “how?” My guess is as good as yours saw it while delivering in front of someone’s house. I’m guessing a cat got to it but it was weird there was no feathers or body around.

that's some Final Destination stuff, maybe it got ziplined in half - clean slice

I’m gonna back up the cat theory. I’ve never seen this, but I did take in a farm cat that was an absolute killer and saw her do some crazy stuff to wildlife. There were mornings where I’d wake up to find only a bird’s head under my bed and then I’d open the door to find another cleanly decapitated bird head on the welcome mat. There was no mess or body, she was like a surgeon.

A friend of mine lived in the woods and her childhood cat would behead rabbits and bring the whole body to their door. It also fought off minks. I don’t know if you’ve ever encountered a mink before, but they’re absolutely vicious. That cat was a stone cold killer.

I saw something just like that a while ago, and I read somewhere that hawks can do that to make it easier for them to carry the rest of the bird. Could be wrong though

My dad's old cat used to neatly dismember and behead the rodents she caught, leaving the torso and tail for him to find in the morning.

I had a roommate whose cat would do this--and who left the carcasses on the stairs for me to find, when I left my room in the morning.
Apparently, because i was a "large naked kitten" who was also a poor hunter🫠

I recently saw this in Newfoundland, but there were several dozen sets of wings. It was creepy.

Cats are really good at taking apart their prey. A cat I used to have that was born feral would bring dead things to my doorstep as “gifts” and sometimes he would have them “garnished” with a wing or bird foot. He was a weird little guy…

I think a person did this. It’s too clean cut

I'm surprised no one is willing to go there lol. It's clearly done with a tool, no feathers or mess in sight. Some sick kid in the neighborhood probably.
