    What would kill a goat this way?

    I think I'd be contacting the game warden; see if they have any ideas; they may've had other reports from the area.

    What would kill a goat this way?

    OH, there are no mountain lions in Ohio either and sorry, I just can't see bats. It would be interesting to see the goats because yeah, then you'd get a better idea. We are interested obviously, since we are in Ohio, too.

    What would kill a goat this way?

    If you had done a necropsy, they probably wouldn't have been able to tell you more than, yes, it was an animal attack (if that)...they're not THAT good. When our chickens had ILT, we had a necropsy done and it took the State vets a while to figure out, at first they thought that was an animal...

    What would kill a goat this way?

    Hey, why not keep this going??? Neither coons or weasels would kill goats. And, we've had experience with both, in our flock. And, although I know weasels will go on killing sprees, OUR weasel ate. And, coons can and do go on killing sprees, but they make a mess. Really. They're horrible. I...

    Quote: Ohio doesn't. Around $40.00 - $60.00 for most, sometimes more. And they want a deposit. They do a good job, though.

    What would kill a goat this way?

    I know dogs won't tear the animal up; they bite and keep going. But I wouldn't think they'd leave an identical two pinhole wound on every animal. In my experience they grab, shake, and drop. Our dog, before she knew better, killed one of the first hens we had exactly like that; and there was...

    What would kill a goat this way?

    I just can't believe dogs wouldn't do more damage than that. It would be more than a pinhole wound, wouldn't it? I do know that sheep can die from fright if a dog gets in the pasture and starts chasing them; it doesn't take long, but then, there would be no damage at all. I'm still betting on...

    What would kill a goat this way?

    That is really weird. I can't think of any predator in Ohio that would attack a goat that way. Aren't they a little big for weasels? I can't visualize how big they'd be, but a weasel or mink attack does fit. from what I've heard, too. But, we had a weasel in with our chickens once; he didn't...
