hoyo is just a hole in the ground, it doesn't need to be deep and is also used in sport -> like golf (hizo el hoyo 15 en cuatro golpes)

madriguera needs the animal after it : madriguera ratonera - mouse hole.

a hole in defences - brecha

and don't forget ano. Without a tilde it doesn't mean year   :wink:
