Default Badgers or foxes?

A couple of weeks ago I reported that badgers had eaten my sweetcorn.
Today somebody on the allotments said it was not badgers but foxes.
He had not seen them but thought that the signs he had seen indicated
foxes.
Do foxes eat sweetcorn? I thought they are carnivores. We've had the
same thing happen before with sweetcorn. This year and last the
carrots were also eaten. Carrots and sweetcorn, on most allotments.
Badgers or foxes?

Pam in Bristol


Could be a combination of critters, Pam. Could deer be around there
going for the corn?
