Somebody was a good boy last night!

We have one chicken predator less; a beautiful but deadly animal:

Least weasel (Mustela nivalis)

It’s incredible that such a small creature can do so much damage. They are ferocious chicken killers.

Next to EU size 40 trainers, for scale

Likely perpetrator of the deed

I’m guessing that this is the responsible party ⇒

There were no dogs there when I found it this morning. (I got him to lie there for the photo.) It is where they take their toys and chews.

I doubt it was the cat, as he tends to eat at least part of his victims – unless one of the dogs interrupted him? It would be the first time a dog took the cat’s prey.

Dog got a treat!
