The problem with the heart shot shown is the entire pump was removed, especially the suction side. Leave that heart pumping while just removing the power side and an average animal will be down in less than 7 heartbeats.

I have seen essentially the same thing many, many times and some critters go a long way with no functional heart, living seconds longer on the O2 stored in the stagnant blood. They can cover a lot of ground in seconds.
