it basically means that they are as boring as a dead person, as 'stiff' is slang for a dead body.
Rigor mortis is dead stiff body, not really called posturing.
If it is breathing or if its heart is beating then it is alive, if it is stiff and cold it is dead, waaah I had this experience before :(
Not necessarily. A stiff hamster could be asleep or in a state of shock. It is best to check for other signs of life (breathing, movement) before determining if the hamster is dead.

Embalming basically dehydrates the body and uses various chemicals to coat the body's tissues. Ever eaten a peice of beef jerky? That's a dead body. Dehydrated and stiff. Of course, the body naturally goes stiff after death when the muscles seize up and become a little like beef jerky.
Yes, when a hamster dies, its body may become stiff due to rigor mortis setting in. This is a natural process that can occur in any animal after death.
Nothing happens inside the dead body moments before "coming back to life" because a dead body cannot come back to life. Once a person is completely dead, they do not return to life as we know it.
stiff
Sadly, no. Once the dead puppy has become stiff, rigor mortis has set in and there is nothing that can be done to revive it.
Basically it becomes property that is inherited. There are restrictions on what you can do with it, but within those restriction's, you do what you want with it.
