Is There A Monster In My Yard?

So I capped this pipe…
Before a famiky reunion last month I had to put in a little bit of an access road to get to where we wanted our taco guys to set up. I needed to move and cap a pipe, and I left it sticking up above grade so I wouldn’t lose track of where it was. Then the other day I noticed something odd while the citrus tree were being watered:





So I have to ask, what kind of “monster” (my wife’s word) is living in our back yard?

That’s 3/4” sch 40 PVC, with a very thick cap on it. What animal would do this/leave these marks?



You can see I’m the pic above whatever it was got all the way through. Can it tell there’s water inside?





I live in suburban LA, kinda rural but many houses nearby. We have quite a bit of citrus so we see tree rats from time to time. And of course there are plenty of coyotes around.

Thoughts from the PPOT braintrust?
