Duck killed, is this a hawk attack?

[Stoney Meadow Maple]

Wife came home and reported one Rouen was missing. Shortly after she called to say it was in the fence, but killed. I have 4’ electronet, with a hot AC Charger. I happen to know it is very hot.
I have seen a fox jump it in the winter with snow on. I see no evidence of tracks here, of course it is grass so, maybe i wouldn’t. The neck was stripped bare, the head still attached but dangling by a string. The innards torn out through the neck hole. I have seen hawks in passing around but never up close right here. They were all shut away last night, so this happened today, i count them carefully every night. I have seen vultures circling but would a vulture bother a live duck?
The other 9 remain uninjured.
I have since taken out 2 sections of fence leaving them with only one 168’ section around their house and around large maple trees.
I am pretty mad about it, but what can be done? It really isn’t feasible to cover their enclosure.

Raccoons are known to remove heads and only eat a bit of the innards.

This looks like a racoon to me, too. Pulling off heads and strewing guts all over.

How did it get through the electric fence? Must’ve been daytime, how did it get out?
Not being argumentative, trying to secure my weaknesses.

You mention maple trees. Any trees inside touch trees outside the fence? I don't have experience with your type of electric fence, but if there is a way in, coon will find it.

I’m so sorry!! We have lost a chicken to a hawk they tend to eat the whole thing leaving the carcass and feathers. Maybe an owl?? Or a raccoon??

I can see how possibly a coon could have gotten in, up a small tree on the outside, drop in, but getting out without fence damage I cannot see. The electronet is floppy, not conducive to climbing, and it would have shocked the bejezus out of anything that tried.

Weasel??

Weasel??

Possibly, still would have to contend with a mighty hot fence

Raccoons like to kill for sport. I would check the others for any possible injuries.
