Quote: I'm from California. Wee figured that! Kidding.
Coons and skunks will eat and drag the stuff off. I had coons get in my chicken coop this summer. It was amazing that they got through a very small opening in a chain link fence with the chicken. Skunks will do the same and eat deer any time they can. Here are some trail cam pics of a deer carcass left out. Hope it doesn't gross out a California girl.
