My grandmother has always said if you have critters you are going to loose some. Ask your vet if there is a diagnostic center close by you can send her too. We have one here about an hour from the house, if it's an old cow I just figure it was her time, if it's a young's or more than one at a time and I can't figure out what coulda gone wrong I will take one to town. I think it cost less than $100 to get a pathology report done.
As for twine, I have never taken sisal twine off and never had any issues. I buy some hay most years net wrapped. I always take net off, if I were to get some with plastic twine I would take it off too. Buddy of mine lost a two year old heifer about 4 years ago, sent her to said lab. Report came back rumen was bound up with net wrap, didn't see the rumen but that is what the paper said. If nothing else any thing that don't rot will be around for years. It plays h*** with wheel seals, bushhogs, disk mowers, field cultivators, and row cleaners.
As for sisal rotting in 4 months, I try to get my hay moved out of the field a little quicker than that. It ain't going to fall apart too much on the 300' trip to the hay rings in the winter.
