I didn't know there was anything out there that would just kill like that except dogs. It surely didn't eat all of them? Never would have gotten back out that 4" hole! So what would do something like that, a weasel or mink?

a weasel will kill a lot and it don,t look like he hardly ate anything

Well my wife kill a coon in the coop today. She caught the little fella asleep in the coop & shoot it with the .17 HMR Texas heart shoot style. The 4" tunnel is still a mystery but it may have been the coon that killed everything.

Coons cant dig up there?

They can dig in florida and kentucky....

I don't think he can fit that hole. I'm betting a rat.

it kina depends on how big they are I catch them in the marshes here where a grass tunnel is only 4-6 " in diameter and my trap is set to that size . I have seen a fairly good sized coon squeeze through a really small hole in a shed or barn I have been using northwood conis the last coupla years the 120 size is only 5" square it is working well .

This isn't just a craw under the wall thing. It goes several feet under the ground. He was to big to get into my trap that is about 4" also.

Well, I got 17 out of 30 shipped xld browns, I can live with that.
