Coulda eaten something bad too

Heartworm?

Honest to goodness hit by lightning? Takes 6 months for heartworm to mature and wife says not much around here. Rabies or distemper it would look more disheveled. I’d say great horned owl as a guess but would think it would have talon marks

if found dead turkeys with out a mark on them and if it wasnt for feather marks on the snow you would think diesese. but can tell it was hit from above.. looked pretty healthy been watching 2 kits and parents all year. now down to 1 kit...

ive watched this and its litter mate since they were born. parents and other kit are still fine as den is just off my yard.. not sure i can only assume bird of prey hit it and got spooked off before it could tear into it..  its pretty small only legnth of my ft without tail.

Did someone throw dynamite down their hole?!?! Too soon?

Some just don’t make it with little explanation.

its only 100 or so yards from its den . only have 1 coyote on camera with 12 out since june. have hundreds of photos of this fox and its family den was just off lawn a dozen or so yards

I got wondering if maybe it swallowed a wasp and got stung in the throat.
Ever seen any timber rattlers on the property?
