Duck with vent bitten, wing torn off

[stokealini]

We found one of our Khaki Campbells dead in the yard today after noticing her missing this morning. There were some feathers around the site, and one wing torn off, but the only other physical injury was a good bite to the vent. This doesn't really fit the descriptions of any predators I am reading - what could it be?

Thanks

Could be a number of things... wing torn off... perhaps a coon which grabbed the wing and tore it?
