An explorer is lost in the freezing Wild Wilderness or in an arctic region. He's far from shelter and there's a snowstorm blowing in and it will soon be too dark to see. His packmule is shivering and clearly on its last legs. He has no immediate shelter, no way to make a fire... and he realizes that there is only one possible course of action. He shoots his poor mule, cuts open her abdomen, and crawls into her body cavity, hoping the heat from the body and shelter from the thick hide will be enough to get him through the night... or at least, until he can be rescued. When rescuers find the hero, they are covered in entrails and blood and the dead animal is ice-encrusted, but the hero is alive. A variant is for the hero to hide in a dead animal's entrails to elude a search party and search dogs. The animal may be a horse, bison or buffalo. In fantasy, it may be a dragon or other mythical creature. In science fiction, it may be an alien creature or beast. Compare Nemean Skinning and Genuine Human Hide. Examples |

Borderlands 3: Tannis is introduced hiding in the corpse of a dead saurian, as a life support glitch has caused her lab to freeze. Of course, this being Tannis, she decides sleeping inside a bloody meat sack is actually quite nice. | |

In 8-Bit Theater, Black Mage suggests doing this to Fighter (and then Red Mage and Thief) in order to make sure the remaining Light Warriors (i.e. himself) don't freeze. Later, Garland and the Dark Warriors actually do this to a Yeti. | |

In Rick and Morty episode "Morty's Mind Blowers", one of Morty's removed memories in the collection features Rick being forced to butcher a friendly animal for this purpose on the grounds that the planet they're on freezes overnight. Unfortunately, it turns out that Rick was reading the stats for the wrong planet, after-which Morty realizes Rick intentionally removed the memory, along with several others, to cover his screw-up. | |

Vampire: The Masquerade features an unusual variation of this in the revised clanbook for the Tzimisce. During the introduction, a German soldier stranded on the Russian front finds himself being granted shelter in a stranded tank "modified" to that end: the outside of the tank has been covered in dead bodies to trap escaping heat, while the interior is layered in the still-living remains of the soldier's unit, which provide so much heat that the tank is actually quite humid. The soldier is awestruck by this, being reminded of stories of hunters sleeping in the carcasses of their prey. Of course, the Tzimisce vampire who actually set this up doesn't need the warmth for himself; he wanted to make a safe haven for the soldier in the hopes of Embracing him. | |

A Song of Ice and Fire: Tormund Giantsbane claims to have once been caught in a storm, and resorted to cutting open a dead giantess and hiding inside her. Said giantess turns out to be alive and when she wakes up, she thinks Tormund is her baby and nurses him (hence, Tormund Giantsbabe). This is Tormund, however. | |

The Venture Bros.: The episode "Escape to the House of Mummies Part II" parodies Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back scene, with Brock cutting open Edgar Allen Poe in order for Hank to rest inside of him. In another episode, Rusty is stranded naked in the arctic. Brock shows up just as he is about to be attacked by a polar bear, and skins the bear with incredible speed to keep the Doc warm. In this case it's partly residual body heat from the bear (its skin is shown to be steaming) and partly just the benefit of a fur coat. |

In an episode of Dinosaur Revolution, a troodon lives through the immediate destruction of the K-T impact, but the suddenly-frigid climate kills its mate and eggs. Wandering in a frozen wood, it finds the carcass of a large predator, and curls up in its open mouth to shelter from the snowfall. | |

Being too big, they end up breaking the body and once the blizzard gets worse, Mario immediately kills Luigi and uses his body instead, moments before getting mauled by wolves. | |

In "To Build a Fire", a short by Jack London, a man attempts to kill his sled dog with the intention of warming his hands in the entrails. It doesn't work because by then his hands are too frozen to keep hold on the animal, as well as the dog is becoming wary, instinctively realizing that something is wrong. | |
