Roadkill

Found this roadkill (Lepus europaeus) on Thursday morning. I cleared it off the road and placed it on a meadow about 15 steps from the road (yes, I counted so I could locate it later). This was around 7 am in the morning. As I grabbed it by the legs and carried it to the meadow, a common buzzard (Buteo buteo = kanja) fllew away from a near-by tree, sounding very upset. When I was returning home around 11 pm, the poor wittle bunny wabbit was already 1/3 eaten (posterior end and eyes). I of course ran out of battery juice  to document that, so I was forced to return in the morning. About 8 hours were enough for *something* to locate it and drag it off somewhere else. I suspect a dog, or perhaps a fox. Note my foot (number 39) for size reference.
