Question... Doctor's Office Scene


In the scene in which the doctor tries to take away Oskar's drum, he screams and all of the jars break and splatter their contents onto the floor. One jar contains a preserved fetus, but the flasks contain something else. What is that? Does anyone have any idea?

What would a physician need preserved snakes for?
