Carrying Off Its Prey
24 Apr 2010 Leave a Comment
Here is a young coyote running off with a gopher in its jaws instead of devouring its catch right then and there, which would normally be the case.
It is pupping season. Because new mothers at first must remain with their new pups to keep them warm and to feed them, other members of the coyote’s family, including pups from the previous year’s litter, will chip in to supply food to the new mom. Here are photos of a coyote carrying prey. Could this coyote be feeding another?
