WOW that totally sucks!! but to add to your story, my grandparents have a large koi pond and one week they went on vacation and asked me to feed the fish while they were gone so i went over only to notice only 3 fish left in the pond. at first I thought the neighbors kids may have swiped a few so I proceeded to the garage to get some food only to notice a large crane swooped down landed on a rock and started eyeballing the last 3 fish in the pond. soo I grabbed a broom and proceed to chase it off. soo I found out that Koi not only are expensive but must also taste good to local water fowl.
I don't doubt anything anymore. I've had hawks attacking my FULL GROWN CATS! One of the boys has talon marks down his back and two holes where they pecked at him!
Tis the season for wild animals to dine on our bill.
