Looks like we had a raccoon raid on our garden pond. not sure how many lost, but I think we lost at least 1 koi + other assorted little ones (gold and mosqueto fish). Plants were knocked in all directions, luckily the pump was still working or that would have been a bunch of work.
Bad raccons!
I now have a pond full of traumatized fish.
I put some food out to comfort them and also see who was left, good thing we were almost at capacity before.

That is too sad. I guess not for the racoon tho. When I lived in Charleston a Heron came and scooped up fish right out of my friend’s pond while we were looking out the window! We went running and yelling. He ate a few

That is so sad. I’m sorry to hear about this. Sounds like raccoons to me too!

Poor fishes, bad rodent (?) are they rodents? well, bad, anyway. Very bad.
Hope the koi feel better after their snacks.
