Massacre in duck yard

cornfedhogedito · Dec 5, 2016

Not such a good day today. Went to check on the ducks this morning and found 2 Raven's and 2 of my ducks dead and 1 missing, 2 more wounded and 2 visibly shaken.

Do I need to worry about momma duck grieving over the loss of Mr. Rubber Ducky? Or is that just a human thing?

Thanks

Oh boy that's terrible. So sorry.
They might be upset. You may just have to wait and see.
I would be concerned about what got them. Any ideas?

Are Raven same as Crows or from the same family we don't have ravens but we have lots of Crows. I know they will take young but never heard of them attacking and killing adult ducks.

Crows are smaller than Ravens.....Not as aggressive either..........Ravens are buggers and will kill puppies left outside also.....

These Raven's are HUGE. I am going to try and get them in the morning

It is illegal to shoot a Raven.........

Ravens must be the size of Buzzards then we have huge buzzards here thankfully they just clean up dead animals. Our biggest threats are hawks we have them year round.
