there are reports of tarantulas killing and dragging away chickens. whether or not they eat them I don't know!
There are a number of predators who will remove and eat the head of a chicken working its way into the soft entrails of the kill. Raccoons, Opossum, skunk, fisher and others of the weasel family kill and consume this way. A better idea would be had, if entrance to the chicken coop was in evidence.Describing the way the predator got into the chicken coop is a better way of determining the culprit.
They kill them for meat
This animal may not have been able to carry the chicken away, or it may have been scared off. It could have been any carnivore like a raccoon, skunk, weasel, meat eating bird, or maybe a fox? Foxes are known for killing and not eating their prey. It must have been scared off, because foxes usually kill all chickens and eat only one or two. Especially getting into a double fenced chicken pen makes me think it's a fox. Definitely sounds like fox behavior. It probably got scared off by noise and would most likely have killed all the chicken had it not been. To keep out foxes you either need a mesh floor or you need to dig down about 2 feet and sink the bottom of your fence in concrete.
No animal can kill a kodiak bear except a human with a good hunting rifle.
yes
Coyote, fox or a dog will kill a chicken and carry it off. Most large predators will make the kill and carry the bird elsewhere for consumption. Animals such as weasels, raccoons etc will often eat the kill on the spot thereby leaving evidence (feathers).
If everything else was gone then the animal that ate your chicken was probably frightened away from the kill and just forgot it. No predator is that selective when consuming a dead bird. If the entrails and feathers were consumed it was more than likely a canine.
Swim away or kill it.
They can. Any animal can carry bacteria, and infect other animals with it.
Yes it does :) To run away from the farmers trying to kill it...
The most popular animal that is killed is probably the chicken, followed by cows and pigs.
Leopards are very good tree climbers. They will often lie in ambush in the tree branches and drop on any prey animal that passes beneath. They will also carry any animal they have killed into the tree branches to keep their kill out of the reach of lions and hyenas, who might try to take the kill away.
The answer is no, it is not possible to kill a chicken by staring at it.
you can only kill a chicken burger if the chicken was alive. but usually its already dead.
The other chickens peck the babies, especially if they are not their own.They can and will kill them.
