RE: coyotes killing deer
Coyotes will reduce a healthy herd... there was a hunting video out a while back where a decent 8 point was taken down by 4 - 5 adult coyotes. The videographer saw one coyote, the hunter pointed to one behind him, then all hell broke loose. From what I remember they chased it into some deep grass and ganged up on it. If I havea chance at a decent buck or a coyote, that's an easy choice! Every hunter should do the same...
