I agree with Jay, if they feel no threat from humans they will be out and about in daylight. Rarely do you ever see a yote during deer season here becasue they get alot of lead thrown at them by hunters. Also i have noticed when the food supply is down, they will be around more frequent in search of food. The rabbit population declined here a few years back, suddenly we had a big problem with yotes coming into our cattle pasture and taking calves in broad daylight. Now the rabbit population is back up and we no longer have that problem.
