If I am not wrong, the coyote’s only predator, is the wolfe.
And, IIRC, a coyote will never kill another coyote. Never. A wolf will kill it’s mother (or any other wolf) for food.
Coyotes are taking over the deserts of Arizona. Wolves are gone, and coyotes protect each other.
Watch your little furry kids - coyotes are getting more brave every day.
Good point on the coyotes actually I have a study that was done in CA-AZ about all the people that were attacked from coyotes. Some really vicous attacks were they knock down small children and tried to rip out their throats.
But AZ does have the Mexican gray wolf. Which is causing all kinds of trouble around Blue AZ.
About eight or ten years ago, early one morning, I saw a couple of coyotes come right up to the door of the place I worked in north Phoenix near the Deer Valley Airport. Sniffed around a bit, and wandered off again.
