There was a vertebra and that's all. Its the splay of the jaw that seems strange, when you hold the bones as they would be attached... very odd....

I'm not sure its not some kind of martian herbivore!!
I think the brown stains may just be decay stains! I think the odd shape may be from it's extreme youth. Did you retain the vertebra?
