A 2 day old ABB lamb, one of a twin pair, has disappeared. There is no sign of intruders, no hair, no bones, no evidence.

We do have coyotes, hawks, owls, and buzzards here, but no panthers and no eagles nearby, This lamb was in a small flock in a 2 acre paddock completely enclosed with a good 4 foot hog wire fence. Our guard dog was with the main flock in another pasture. I'm guessing the lamb weighed about 3 lbs, could be a little less; it was the smaller of the twins.

Have any of you had that experience? Do you know what manner of critter can either totally consume such a lamb or remove it out of the paddock without a trace?

Thanks for your help,
