Yea, the calcified skeleton is fractured in multiple places from the base of the skeleton all the way up into the soft tissue. For now the rubberband is holding it together fairly well (no more leaks), but I'm pretty sure that will only work as a temporary fix.

Should I try the super glue as an artificial exoskeleton? Will that work as a permanent fix? Or as Angela said just go ahead and hack that piece off? The stuff on the inside was just beginning to start coming out of the fractures when I put the rubberband around it so I don't think it lost too much of its "organs".

The batteries for my digi cam are dead so I will try to get pics later after they've recharged. Any more advice would be greatly appreciated.
