Reminds me of a time several years back when I had a fish feeder out in my pond floating on a dock. It was an older feeder and did not have a guard cage around where the feed would dispence - didn't think I needed one since this thing was a good 30 feet off the shore in the water. One morning I go down to refill the feeder and I can see something black and brown laying out on the dock. I get in my john boat and paddle out and as I get closer I realize it is a coon and it literally could not move. It had swum out, crawled up on the dock, and spun all of my protein feed out and eaten it. It was so bloated it was about to explode and could not move - it let me come right up to it and was trying to move to get away but couldn't move. My guess is it would have eventually died from bloating but I helped the process happen a little faster. Anyway, I bought a new feeder and put a cage over it and it never happened again. Coons are relentless.
