Similar to Don Quixote and the Windmill, here is a juvenile coyote attacking a giant snake, so to speak. The coyote attacked, tugged at, pushed and bit this thing for about 45 seconds. It was a spirited and enthusiastic encounter, rivaled in intensity only by the frolicking play with its sibling. I have learned that coyotes love to play. They play with each other or they play alone. They play with sticks, with balls left by dogs, and even with, yes, dead rodents or snakes.
