That doesn’t sound right...not saying you didn’t find 2 dead squirrels but they can usually, take a pretty good fall from any height especially onto soft woods floor. Now, if they fell onto granite or a stone wall, that may be a different story.
How did you determine the backs were broken? Squirrel autopsy?
