That reminds me of a something that happened to me. I had an Argentine Horned Toad and had a mason jar full off water with a fish tank heater in that to keep the humidty up. I put a mouse in the tank, ran upstair for a couple minutes. When I returned the mouse gone and toad was back in its hide. Later that day I was in the room and the smell almost made me throw up. Some how the mouse ended up in the mason jar and was slow cooking. NASTY
