RE: coyote and other predators
awesome lets see those pics! my gut pile from saturday was already gone by tuesday, and my dad said there were no large tracks in the snow around it, so he was thinkin birds. we have alot of jays around here, canadian and blue, but i dont think they could have cleaned a gut pile in only a few days, my guess would be bear, coyote, wolf, bobcat, fisher, or bird of prey, but now i wont know til i get out and get another gut pile, i mean deer. post those pics if you can, those sound cool!
