Must be monk or weasel.. I never knew what these holes were until now... what do you think?Someone that does not carry off carcass so that rules out a fox, coyote, or bobcat. Killer did not have opportunity to fill a large stomach, because has a small stomach or was interrupted. Carcass as shown appears to have had someone pull it around by head or neck which not consistent with a Opossum or Raccoon. Attacker consumed contents of some eggs which not consistent with owl.
I think a weasel or mink involved. Look closer at head and neck for bite marks each with four holes. If they jumped in nest, then the typical running kill would not occur as the predator would deliver killing bite to back of head relatively quickly.
I would leave you found in place while making access to balance of flock more difficult. This will by you time before predator wants to make another kill and may allow you to ID culprit. Knowing who predator is makes for better ideas on how to respond.
Seems it was from here- the liver area.Where was the worm found?
