Hi all,
Can't find an answer to this on google so thought I'd ask here.
We have two rabbits that were left playing around in the garden on the 13th July during the daytime.(Much like every day).
I spotted them at 2pm - they were fine. 3 hours later, I noticed them both missing.
Had a quick look round and found one hidden in a cravass, visibly shaken. Four of us scanned every inch of the garden and couldn't find the other one.
We assumed he may have been attacked and taken although there was no sign of struggle. No fur or blood traces.
This morning (the 16th July) we spot his corpse, in a visible place where it definitely wasn't the past three days. It seems that whatever took it, killed it and then brought it back.
His neck had a huge gash on it, but aside from that the rest of the body was intact. There was also fur strewn across the garden.
So I guess my question would be, what predator animal fits the profile of this type of behaviour?
Thanks
