I don't think people know much about HABITAT around here with the way the just mention animals.

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

we don't have wolf in Nigeria

Mount discrete security cameras around Ur farm. To capture what's really going on

Opoki:


Yes, it is in the forest, somewhere around the tropical rain belt of the southwest

What is the name of the place? Nor dey use geography terms here.

Hezzyluv:

VeryWickedGoat:




Hyenas and wild dogs start feeding from the most vulnerable parts at the rear end or belly. They also consume all parts including skin and bones since they hunt in packs.
This kill reveals that the predator was acting alone, caught the goat and waited till it was dead before devouring. It also shows that the predator is selective with desirable parts.

Wild cat behaviour.

Wild cats always suffocate their prey and start eating from the belly where they can easily skin the carcass. Cats don't eat skin of animals.

This is not the work of a wild cat and if it were it would have dragged the relatively light ram away into the bush and not consume it within the premises.

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

Nice info, but African civets are omnivores, but prefer more of fruits to meat. They're also too small to wreak such havoc.

You didn't mention the location and the time (period) of the incident. Knowing these things will be helpful in tracing the cause of the problem.

The first step in investigating and solving a problem like this is knowing the location and time of occurrence.

You think like a cyber-security engineer

Hezzyluv:
I dey think Hyena

Hyenas will most likely devour everything

Slickest:

Can I have your contact

I replied your dm boss

This is a dangerous big cat on the loose.

Those days of hunting in the village, the first thing would be to examine the footprint of the predator.

You need a trap strong enough to catch that animal. Preferably a wire trap, you should use a goat as a bait. This needs a skilled hunter.

Originalsly:


Bro .... you need to know the predator .... your mind seem to be set that perimeter fencing is the solution. Do you really believe fencing can keep out a big cat?... that knows where preys are kept? ... don't underestimate the abilities and strength and instincts of wild animals. My advice is to ask the hunters what animal they think it is .... and how to trap it. Most likely... you'll have to provide a goat as bait. Whatever the animal.... he will return.

Our game plan is to fence the perimeter then deal with the Intruders by feeding them poisons, since we know what they like most

Hezzyluv:
I dey think Hyena

Nope not hyena, hyenas eat bones and all. A small wild cat is responsible

The name of the animal is I NEED BLOOD

The best method is to set traps and surveillance.
Install CCTV cameras in your pens, set up things like bell alarms on tin cans strung to trees and bushels that click and clack once disturbed. This would actually frighten any predator or invader. Set actual traps to catch these predators. You can purchase affordable ones or make DIY using YouTube as reference material. Either way, when all else fails, go through the CCTV footage to know the type of beast responsible for the daily slaughter. You'd probably be able to research how better to catch the animal, kill it, or prevent it from ever attacking your goats in the future.

We are having this kind of attack second time this month and the pattern of the attack is exactly the same.

Due to farm invasion of our livestocks, we only allow them to graze at night and leave them till daybreak while we let them into their cage.

The first victim of this wild attack was Huda ram, he was sick and want missing, after about the third day, we found him with his head ripped off from the neck, likewise the second goat, brought in for mating about 12 days ago, felt sick, recovering, went to graze and the second day we met him this way.

We are currently working on installing perimeter net for the first part of the land we intend to use for livestock, that's about 3 acres, it separates the farm from the remaining land meant for crop plantation.

Which animal do you think is on the prowl?
Kindly suggest how to capture or kill this animal.

Thanks.

If you have nor disturbed the crime scene, first thing you should look for is prints, any foot print that is not from the goat should be the first direction you look at

an angry neighbour may take revenge at ur livestock for invading and destroying their crops,be sure u figure out ur livestocks are not trespassing at night,people are just wicked

MideMrPossible:


No blood, no struggle where we found the remains, I felt it's because the goat was sick and just recovering before the incident.

Safeguard ur self or u will soon be abducted to an unknown world. Many won't believe cos they think they are alone. Lolz

Make and install scarecrow around your farm like four with helmet around the surrounding. I'm a goat farmer too, I'm telling you from experience. Check my moniker on Google.

Take that guy comment very seriously, because while I was engaged in poultry farming I experienced this type of thing, later I had to stop the business.
Avoid bringing people around your farm except those that want to purchase your products.

Civet

This is a call for you to become a hunter. I see you killing the animal next year

Hezzyluv:
I dey think Hyena

and hyaena will leave part of the animal for you?

LOL, that thing does not work oh, I did same for my poultry farm but I realized it wasn't animal but evil forces, I had to design mine in such a big man standing tall with big head but it didn't work.

Lagos2Berlin:


Nice info, but African civets are herbivores, they're also too small to wreak such havoc.

Vegetarian cats?


Are you sire about this

This is a job of a wild dog,those dogs are fucking brutal to have severed the head of a goat like this isn't a joke,it is not hyena does ones won't even leave any flesh behind

OP like people said setup a camera and you will be surprised what comes out at night near your farm

Think about your safety too very important alert d hunters around as well
