I had 2 female mallard ducklings (about 1.5 months old) and today I observed them playing in their pool and having fun!.... I returned an hour later to find one dead and the other clinging to life (she so died later) one was a little torn up (feathers missing) but NO blood at all. The cage wasn't damaged and it DOES HAVE A METAL TOP ...so I assume a predator bird couldn't have done it.? Any ideas on what did it? Snakes? Bees? Wasps? We are in southwest wi..
Any ideas would be appreciated
 
How big are the holes in the enclosure?
Mink, weasel, rats?
A racoon can reach his dirty paws thru a small hole.
