I guess I'll have to take the opposite view than most on here.
1) A coyote is stouter and more formidable than a bobcat. Bobcats are built kinda fragile compared to a coyote.
2) There's been several attacks and even some fatalities by coyotes. I don't know of any fatalities from bobcats.
3) Remember the guy a few months back that killed the half grown mountain lion with his bare hands? I'm sure someone has killed a coyote with bare hands, but I'm not familiar with any. I have seen plenty of pissed off, trapped coyotes or wounded coyotes that had lots of fight in them.
My shooting sticks still carry the marks of when I had to use them to pin a coyote to the ground to break up the fight between he and Buster, so I could shoot it point blank. That coyote bit the sticks and jerked them outta my hand.
