    Even though that's sad Kevo, it's not as uncommon as you think.

    Sometimes severe winters can cause the frost line to be quite a bit lower than normal, and entire dens get wiped out.

    that's it
    I'm bringing mine in before winter starts for real
    that was kind of the plan anyway
    these guys here I've already brought in because they're not that big yet
