Default I'm flumuxed

I always throw any left over food, chicken bones etc under the hedge, in
the evening in the one spot, and for years we have had a fox or two and
a badger visiting for them.
A few weeks ago I chucked out a chicken carcass, then went out about
half an hour later with a few more scraps, this would have been about
10pm, something moved away grumbling, making sounds I've never heard
form our visitors before, it's grumbling carried on till it was a good
50 yards away.
Then over this last weekend I found a casserole dish of pasta I'd
forgotten, it was niffing a lot, but I thought they would clear it.
I was wrong , in the morning something had scratched all round it to
bury it the same as a cat will cover it's mess.
The area scratched was about a Sq. yard, the next night more covering.
Now I doubt it's a Fox, but a Fussy Badger?
Any ideas?
