A paw is extended and placed on the object
Today I saw a coyote deliberately extend it’s paw and place it on an object in the road, as if trying to pick up information about it. I don’t know if the coyote was trying to “feel” it, or was sensing if it was alive, or possibly making sure it was dead, or what. But the coyote purposefully extended it’s paw and held it on top of the object for several seconds, as I’ve seen it do when it pinned down a vole once.
