Two days ago I photographed a coyote biting off and eating a duck’s head and leaving the rest of the carcass behind. Yesterday morning I photographed a different coyote doing the same thing, twice. I have to wonder why they’re doing it. (16 photos)
After many years of observing coyotes on Antelope Island I may have finally put two and two together. I’ll present the evidence and viewers can make up their own minds. (14 photos)
And I do mean “freshly”. He caught the duck maybe five seconds before this photo was taken, even though he had a broken left rear leg. Don’t worry, there are no blood or guts in the photo.
