Hawks don't swallow their prey alive, nor whole.

My guess is the hawk had swallowed the leg, and was later killed by road collision, and the force of the impact from the vehicle burst open the hawk's crop.

That makes more sense, Resin. Thanks. I was shocked at the thought of it eating a real LIVE animal or bird.
