I am putting together lecture materials concerning depredation on chickens. Intent is give insight into the how, so the events can better be prevented.

Oh how I hate those little red b@$t@rd$!!! I should start seeing them again mid-April. That's when they usually start stalking my flock.

Ditto this. I need to reinforce my garden boundaries ASAP.

That fox going around the gate to pull the dead chicken through because he and the chicken couldn’t fit together is one smart cookie.

I should have turned the volume off before watching the video.

All 4 dogs decided there was a chicken in need of rescue in the kindle.

My dogs destroy things as well.

No destruction this time lol. Just about knocked me out of the chair!
I guess they recognized a chicken in distress call and felt the need to respond immediately.

Do not cry. Learn from it and think of ways to better protect the chickens.
