Closest thing we have are minks.... not a fan of those either...
Husband didnt even know there were minks in the area! One got our rooster some years back.... then, husband shot the mink while it was trapped under his reloading shed..... (reloading shed-for those who dont know is a building the husband keeps and reloads ammunition..... and he shot a gun underneath it.... I know, I know)
But, he explained it away that if something was tough enough to kill that mean old rooster... it had to die.
Some days I wonder...... LOL

I think like a Martin. A large weasel like ferret thing.
