Well he certainly is misinformed I'll say that. I've literally shot yotes OFF a calf! Still didn't get to the poor little fella in time but I tried! Already ripped it's throat. Typically yotes don't pack around more than 2, sometimes 4 at a time but you will see an occasional 6-8 pack in your North Eastern states and while they aren't as "together" as wolves, they do sometimes successfully work as a team somewhat to bring down larger prey such as deer and small cattle.

But man if you haven't ever watched a pack of wolves track, split an animal off from the herd, and act so in unison you would think the whole thing was choreographed, then you have not seen anything worth seeing in nature. It's amazing how well they work as a team even when a couple will split off from the pack to head the animal off or act as "stoppers" as much as a mile ahead. Makes one believe in telepathy!!
