Welches nachtaktive Tier frisst Nüsse?
Hallo,
ich nutze die derzeitige Situation (Covid-19 für Leute, die das später irgendwann lesen) für Tierbeobachtungen (insbesondere Vögel) und kleine Experimente.
Und zwar habe ich mehrfach Nüsse (Nusskernmischung von Ja!, also alles geknackt und essfertig) an eine bestimmte Stelle auf der Wiese, wo ich auch beobachte, gelegt. Am nächsten Tag waren sie immer weg.
Jetzt wollte ich den Zeitraum näher einengen, um das Tier zu bestimmen. Die Nüsse habe ich um ca. 16:00 deponiert, um 21:00 habe ich das nächste Mal geguckt. Da waren die Nüsse noch da. Als ich um 00:30 die Stelle wieder überprüft habe, waren die Nüsse weg. Sprich: ein Tier, das am späten Abend und im Frühling (zurzeit ist April) unterwegs ist, hat die Nüsse gefressen.
Die Wiese liegt am Waldrand, also habe ich an Wildschweine gedacht. Allerdings gibt es auf der Wiese überhaupt keine aufgewühlten Stellen. Können das trotzdem Wildschweine gewesen sein? Welche anderen Tiere kommen in Frage?
Vielen Dank für die Hilfe!

I’d rather think about little rodents, mice, rats and the like. Or did you find traces that indicate a bigger animal?
No, I didn’t, so the place looked normal. Thank you for the answer!
The question that asks me is whether it must have been a night-active animal at all or whether it could not be a late day-active animal. To check this, you should often interpret baits at this time, but then observe or (less good) regularly check. The later deployment would also be possible. Get out. between 23 and 4 a.m. (large frame) it is quite likely a night-active animal.
So you can better arrange the animal.
After feeling, as others have already written, I would tap on small rodents (mouses, rats), where the squirrel is most likely to be considered, as they often take the things found, mice and rats eat more often on site. Then you should’ve found traces of fress.
I wish you a lot of success in the further observation, but let us know the result if you have one.
Thank you. Watching the place is bad, because I can’t really hide in the area, but narrow-meshed control should also provide a few hints, I hope at least.
Wish you a lot of success. Think about a wildlife camera, or how it’s supposed to be…
Oh, on the subject of result: a few days later, the food disappeared between half 1 and 11 a.m. (after half 1 no longer looked, wanted to sleep at some point), but of course this is a very long period, so you can still say that it was a night or dawning animal, but because it has not left any traces, I go out of a rodent. I’d rather feed to sparrows on the balcony now and then I see who eats the food and doesn’t have to go all the time.
Mice, rats, small birds, etc. The question is when the term “night” is fulfilled with you, then you should stick in the book, 4 pm is not “night” yet.
I wrote that I looked at 21:00 and the nuts were still there. So they were eaten between 9 and half, which I would call night.
Hasen and Co are also on the go. If you have not found any traces, just use loose earth to leave them.
Please, welcome
That’s a very good idea. Thank you.
Think about squirrels.
Are they out late?
Dawn-active.
Could be here since the summer.
Hmm, that could happen, even though it was almost dark at 9:00. I’ll have to look at shorter distances next time. At 00:30 it was, of course, completely dark. there is hard to say whether the nuts were eaten in the dusk or in the dark. Thank you.
