Found: Fetus in a Jar

Mike Paulus |

In somewhat extremely macabre news, someone was digging through an old closet at UW-River Falls and found a human fetus in a jar. No big deal. If you’re the friggin’ Crypt Keeper. From WEAU.com

  • The University of River Falls says a fetus was recently discovered in one of its buildings. The Director of Media Relations says the fetus was 40 years old and was likely donated to the university for classroom experiments. It was found in a storage unit along with a small bone, neonatal skull, and an adult femur.

Authorities took the fetus to a local funeral home. No reports on what the undertakers will do with it. Probably not ancient ritualistic ceremonies to gain all encompassing power. Probably just respectful cremation. Nothing X-files-ish, either, I’m sure.

In other news, “The 40 Year Old Fetus” sounds like a good sequel to a Steve Carell movie.
