Photoshop/Not photoshop?
ST. JOHN?S, N.L. ? Marine scientists in Canada and abroad are puzzled by bizarre photographs that appear to show the skeleton of a large mammal jutting out of an iceberg that recently drifted past Newfoundland?s east coast.
The six pictures show what looks like a brown rib cage and spinal column, slightly bent, sticking out of a crust of ice.
But researchers throughout Canada, Greenland and Norway are unable to determine the origin of the skeleton, said Garry Stenson, a marine mammal scientist with the federal Fisheries Department.
"It?s definitely unusual," Stenson said Monday. "It?s not something that I?ve encountered before."

Are you sure you got them right? They look like they are the same and neither gives an obvious match to the description you used.

I'd think that connecting tissue would deteriorated or separated from the bones unless they were wired. Some bones are broken so it's not been a gentle ride.

... eating frozen mammoth meat found in permafrost and glacial ice. That there should be remains of a frozen carcass floating along in possibly ancient shelf ice is no surprise to me. Who knows when it was scavenged? This year? Flesh picked away at by sea birds? or a thousands years ago by polar bear and wolves?
Shame no one recovered it.
