This evening something got one of my hens... I found the body, minus head and wings, partway down the hill from the coop. I know we have foxes, coyotes, bobcats, owls, hawks... when a hawk got one last summer, it went for the organs and left the rest, plus it was dusk, so I doubt it was a hawk. Any ideas?
 
I know around here fox will carry a hen off and the wings get in the way so they will quickly chew them off and leave them so they can carry the bird more easily.
I think that it was a fox and they were spooked while carrying the body off causing them to drop it.
