In both cases, it was impossible to determine the species of the animals. An investigation was launched, and a forensic veterinarian was contacted to assist. An initial examination from the forensic vet was inconclusive. As a follow-up, Fremont PD sent the remains to a specialized facility for further analysis and DNA testing.
