Another dead one!! with the same injury. I really wonder what is going on there. Has anyone heard of similar injuries/killings of shinglebacks in any other CNM sites? it seems restricted to Mt Majura's northwest part?

Predation, east access to the internals through the vent. Potentially birds.

Great to have a logical explanation. Any idea of which birds? Kookaburras? Crows?
