If a coyote finds a clutch of young pheasants that can't fly yet, it'll get them all.
Bobcats too - read a while back fish&game somewhere[?] followed a collared bobcat that followed a mother turkey and poults unable to fly yet . Bobcat killed every baby turkey and the mother turkey too .
Dale there's some good stuff on youtube about 'nest predators' coyote fox bobcat coon skunk possum all meander around looking for nest to rob .
It takes an extensive amount of work to curtail them then others move in to fill the void .
That's why i shoot every one of them every chance i get .
Not near as hard on them as all the hawks and eagles are.
Fact ..
Back in the 70's when i was kid - farmers shot every hawk they saw and we never ran out of hawks like the lefties stories go .
