If it's not wolf, fox, or big monitor lizard alligator, then it should be wild dogs.

azukaegopeter:
Its the hand work of a roaming homeless dog. Had this same encounter in my farm. Thought it was a wild animal until we caught the dog one night and that's the end till date

habsydiamond:
Ur farm must be close to a forest.. its a wild animal's doing. Wolf, hyena, fox and Co.

FreshFarmAgro:
You should start worrying about your safety not the goats. Whatever killed the goat in such a cruel manner must be really cruel


I'm writing this to tell you to be careful about your life.

This clearly is the doings of a dangerous animal


Now, let me advice you professionally.

Go and do deep research on why animal rearers always choose to pair a donkey alongside other animals like yours while raising them. This can be the answer to saving you from such losses into the future.



Be careful. Be it an hyena, a fox or a jackal. These animals can be deadly



An hyena doesn't need to kill an animal from the neck, though it's not that it can not. This suggests another dangerous animal





Jackal Diet

Jackals are nocturnal, omnivorous scavengers. With their long legs and curved canine teeth, they are well adapted for hunting


Jackals kill small prey with a bite to the back of the neck.



Range & habitat

All jackal species live in Africa, albeit in different regions.



Diet

Jackals can be both diurnal and nocturnal. This means that they can look for food both day and night. All jackals are omnivorous, meaning that their diet consists of both meat and plants.


Highlight


" When it comes to killing small prey, they usually do so by delivering a bite to the back of the neck and vigorously shaking the animal. "



Possible culprits


Jackal

Fox

Juvenile Leopard

African civet

I'll suspect a civet cat
We call them edi abali, don't know what you guys call it.

It targets the neck of it's pray goats, sheep or chickens.

A wild leopard can do that too but would have dragged the animal to finish it.

Hyenas are scavengers and will flex the animal leaving the bones behind.

KwaraRat:
Shit!

No animal can clinically severe the head clean and then proceed to live the more nutritious carcass uneaten.

This reminds me of Alien conspiracy theories of farm animals having their organs surgically removed in the US mid west.

OP, please provide more info. This shit needs to be looked into

Kindly provide location. When this happened and if your farm is remotely located from other human settlements.
