I have three pens with a 6ft talk fence. One one has turkey's, one has ducks and geese then the 3rd has chickens. A few weeks ago something got all 7 turkey's in one night. A week later it started getting the ducks. There is no sign of going under the fence or anything left. So it has to be going over the top. I did go around in the pasture and noticed some feathers up in a fork of a tree with blood. So looks like it climbs trees to eat it sometime, but once again it's all gone. Any ideas what may be getting them? Heard it could be a bobcat or mountain lion. Ideas or solutions?

I'd guess bobcat - seems that a mountain lion would damage the fence noticeably when climbing over.
 
What kind of fence and where are you located?

Agree with some kind of cat, I think they typically will take prey up in a tree to eat, and it has to be something pretty big to take a turkey over a 6 foot fence.
