Who's been pulling this stump apart ? Too much activity for woodpeckers.
What other animals (?) could be doing it ?


Without a "before" pic, it's hard to tell that it's been "pulled apart".
To
me, it looks like it's finally broke down enough to fall apart. Maybe if
you dig around a bit in it, you'll see signs of carpenter ants or even
termites? If they're present, they could be the cause, or perhaps
something
was trying to get at the ants/termites/whatever.

*shrug* just a guess. =)

I don't see any of those critters on the surface but there must be some
little creatures inside to make it attractive.
