PREDATORS:

The raccoon is a nocturnal mammal. It is unusual because of its thumbs which enable it to open many closed containers. It is an omnivore with a reputation for being clever and mischievous. The raccoon will make a huge mess as it removes fish, snails, frogs and plants from the pond.
 
The great blue heron has blue-grey wings and back, and a white head with a black cap and a long black plume. The face is white, with a black streak. It has a long neck, streaked with white, rust-brown, and black, and a short tail. The beak is yellow, long, and tapers to a point. Legs are long, and greenish-yellow. The blue heron is a wading bird. It will only access shallow ponds. It is a stealthy hunter going after fish and frogs.
 
The kingfisher has a large head, long, sharp, pointed bill, short legs, and a stubby tail. It lives in woodland and wetland habitats. The kingfisher hunts small fish and frogs by diving. It beats prey to death, by whipping it against a tree or by dropping it.
