I think it can only be a fox or Muntjac as there are no larger
animals in this area (south Lincolnshire) that I know of.
sheep?
I think we can rule out anything smaller than a sheep considering the amount
of trampling, and i can't imagine a fox, or even a family of foxes would be
overly interested in corn. Only for the 5ft chewing marks, I'd have said
the raider had two legs.
There is trampling underfoot and the surprising thing is that some of
the stalks Have been chewed more than five feet above the ground.
Could either animal cause damage so high up?
