okay but surely the coyotes weren't bigger than a moose. A moose can be bigger than a truck.
Yeah they're big, but they don't turn very quickly. If the coyotes can draw blood, they'd be able to make the moose bleed out eventually.
Also, there was an article like a decade ago about America's coyotes and one phrase really stuck with me: canis soup. The researchers used the term to describe all the interbreeding that was occurring with coyotes, wolves, and domestic/tame dogs. I only point this out to say that the 'coyotes' in this story may have had some wolf or pitbull in them.
Has anyone ever caught that on video?? A pitbull dog fucking a coyote? 😳
No, but I got this sweet video of a coyote fucking a pit bull! /s
Watched a video of a single wolverine taking down a grown reindeer. It was brutal, took some time, but the little guy won.
(Don't watch that if you're not accustomed to nature "red in tooth and claw".)
