Frank Tyler last year saw a coyote pull
down a white-tail doe. It ran the
deer onto the ice of the river + by
heading it off kept it from reaching
shore then closed + by leaping
on its neck twice forced it
down. The second time it stayed
down. He has counted as many
as 7 kills in a mile of river.
Mostly yearlings. Another warden
counted 16 kills in one mile.
He once found where several
coyotes had found a weak elk.
They had pulled out quite a lot
of hair but the elk had gotten to its
feet + run off.
Deer are very frightened of coyotes
in that vicinity, at least in winter
months.
