Default The Fish are gone

musk rats are rodents, they dont eat fish. more likely if nothing else is disturbed
you have a mink or other sharp pointed toothed in the weasel family that swim really
really well. Ingrid

I am positive. The pond is some what clear. We noticed today that the two fish
in the front smaller pond are now gone. We believe that it is a musk rat or
several musk rats.
