Sounds like they were disturbed by something before they finished the job tho. I doubt it was skinned alive, anything for a headline!! Dead things are easier to skin.. Sounds familiar around here with certain foreign nationals.

The chicks above aren't even used in food. Their were born male and can't be profitably exploited.
