There was a woodchuck hole near by that they were seen running into. Thoughts? Woodchuck didn't like late company? Be Green, Buy Fur. NE- NC

If only young on site I'd favor that being their den but that she possibly came down with something and nipped them herself, not that it couldn't be another species perpetrating. Would expect they''d be worse if a woodchuck went at them. Just .02... If you necropsy the bite area can rule out based on what you find in terms of teeth marks and hemorrhaging.
