So I go out on this beautiful day to feed the critters and find a Mt. Lion killed 5 ewes

That is my entire flock of ewes. I still have the big ram and 3 yearling rams. My living lawn mowers are no more. Sure put a damper on my day. We had a lion come years ago killed a couple of goats and several sheep. I have made arrangements for someone to come and take them to a rendering facility. None of the animals had been eaten on. In the past only the hind leg of one of the goats had been eaten on. Usually the problem is coyote. putting up electric fence stopped that.

Just needed to vent my troubles.

Hope your day was a good one.
