A+ for you. Lots of people out here have the BLM burros on their land because they keep coyotes away. Muliebrity doesn’t necessarily mean froo-froo. I think you exhibit yours in taking care of others and being tender with them, whether it’s your child or your animals.
Thank you-for both compliments...
Keeping coyotes and packs of feral dogs away from chickens and other livestock are the reason people keep those ill tempered equines here, too. I’ve heard that even mountain lions hesitate to mess with them. We don’t have bears here, so I don’t know if the same is true for them.
