Mystery of the dead rats

The other morning we found two dead rats, one had a cut to it's neck, while the other had a cut on it's back.

I put it on twitter and some tweets came back with the suggestions of a Fox, a Cat or Samurai pygmy shrew!

 I decided to put the trail camera out to see if we could find out what might have killed them.

What the camera showed up was a black shadow in the bottom left corner



 A badger

And the milk man

Don't tell my sister but this badger is underneath her bedroom window. It's very exciting to think that the badgers potter around outside our house at night.
