I saw this happen two days ago Caladonia county, VT. Coyote came running out of the woods into a field. 25 yards behind, a deer chased it. The coyote zigged and zagged a couple times and the deer chased right behind. The doe stopped and the coyote keep going.
A deer is much larger than a coyote and has sharp, fast hooves. A single coyote would not take on a deer normally. Too much chance of an injury that could mean less successful hunting and/or starvation?
The coyote is smarter
Do you need a deer licence to hunt coyote during a deer season?
No deer are all vegetarians. Coyote may eat deer if they are found wounded or dead.
He probably has a nest nearby.
it can be people or a coyote
Yes.Coyotes live in packs and will sometimes hunt deer.
First the deer eats the plant and then is hunted by the coyote. When the coyote dies it decomposes and fertilizes the soil in which a plant grows. Another deer comes along and eats the plant etc.
Probably not. Coyotes are roughly the size of German shepherds, only not as heavy. An adult deer is a formidable opponent. It is unlikely that a coyote would try it, unless the deer was immature or very sick. Coyotes live on rabbits and smaller game, such as birds, for the most part, unless they are hunting in a pack. A pack can take and kill deer, and have been known to take elk -- typically by running them to exhaustion in deep snow.
Bears, Cougars, Coyote, and more People hunt deer too.
