A family friend in CO has had numerous sheep killed by coyotes in a single eveningand left without even being nibbled on. They kill them for fun apparently. He bought a llama and it has killed a few and protected his sheep, but the hatred still lives on. He has seen them kill who know howmany elk calves, sheep, mule deer, etc.
I guess I owe ya an appology then. I got confused when you went from having a llama protecting his sheep to where you put domesticated sheep in the same sentence with wild game!!
By the way, even very few healthy mule deer get taken by coyotes. Mule deer are the aggresor and will actually chase coyotes and this is why many of us westeners have mule deer come into our sets when we are calling coyotes!! Mtn. lion take way more mule deer in this state than do coyotes!!
Again, my appology!!! I'll kill my share of them this winter, I promise!!
