It's shocking that more ranches haven't used donkeys or llamas to protect livestock. This predator prevention has been known for decades, yet they have been seriously under-utilized. I don't agree with culling wild predators and hold those who do in disdain. If livestock predation can be prevented simply by introducing bad asses, that's the way it should be.
Coyotes were RE-introduced into my farming region near Lake Erie over 35 yrs ago . . . Without much 'notice or debate'. 4 years ago we had to go to war with them (and our own local, state and federal agencies) because of them. One neighbor gave up his sheep herd after 15 years of loosing battles and another 50% loss of spring lambs. Dogs, cats, chickens, even foals and calves have been attacked or lost. Now it's been confirmed there's wolf/coyote hybrids out there.
Coyotes are not native to that area I don't think. They live in the mountains and prairies of the west. You guys have eastern gray wolves. You should get rid of those 'yotes. They will breed out the wolves. That's exactly what happened to the Mexican gray wolf.
I love my livestock guardian dogs. The coyotes eat squirrel and rabbits, so I want them around. My dogs make sure to keep the coyotes away from my goats,sheep,pigs and birds. The coyotes respect the boundaries, everybody wins.
@@williamjordan5554 Well, after inhabiting my attic and quarreling with other squirrels up there at 3:00 am, chewing the shutters, trim and siding on my house as though it were made of gingerbread, and all at my financial expense, I realized a very hungry cat 🐈 & extermination was the solution.
LIVESTOCK GUARDIAN DOGS!!! They r phenomenal & will keep coyotes & stray dogs, predators at bay. I have a Great Pyrenees F & an Anatolian M. Coyotes go around my place. I've not lost any animals yet. Stray dogs have not even tried to come thru the fence when they have my dogs standing there barking at them. I've got horses (full size, pony & a mini), goats, cattle, chickens.
"Coyotes, coyotes, coyotes, coyotes, coyotes, coyotes, coyotes, coyotes. Oh, by the way, Big Curve Acre Farms is gonna bring in some donkeys. Rob Cooper, CVTV News."
I love coyotes and wolves but they will attack domesticated animals and sometimes people. They are just trying to survive in a harsh world but it's a huge problem for farmers and ranchers. Donkeys will definitely kick coyote and even wolf ass. (Pun intended.) They are brave animals.
Mules will also kill coyotes. They will attack them outright. Hunters killing off coyotes does no good because other coyotes will just move into the area and it all starts again. Llamas and Alpacas will also warn and fend off coyotes. They can be pretty darn vicious when they need to be.
My brother took out a pack of 14 in one night with a starlight scope on a civilian M14 in the high desert of California after they started coming on his property to kill his dog. At 250 yards they had no clue.

The best method is deterrence so these donkeys are a great idea. Killing coyotes (about 1 a minutes is killed in the US) actually increases their population as they breed and have more offspring as a response to culling. In coyote packs that aren't hunted, only the top mating "alpha" pair breed within a complex social structure. Culling coyotes breaks apart the social hierarchy and makes more breeding pairs as a response. They end up breeding twice as fast or more. It's 2022 and "educated", regional governing bodies still haven't figured this the fck out.
I had issues with coyotes, foxes and other preditors getting my livestock. I brought in a jack donkey and he is very territorial and protects the farm. But all donkeys dont make good guard animals. If you see a donkey who accepts canines they will not guard. Donkeys have evolved to hate canines and even cats are not tolerated. But unfortunately or fortunately how ever you want to call it, that fiestyness was bred out of them. So just adding a donk as a guardian because it's a donkey and all donkeys protect is not true. I would say one out of 10 will have that natural hatred towards canines still in them. Adopting wild burros from the BLM would be your best bet finding a guardian. Not ones from breeders who bred that meaness out.
I had a horse (a mare) that hated all small furry animals. A rabbit wandered into her stall one day, and when she finished with it, the creature looked like a drawing. It was smashed. It was flat.
Donkeys don’t get enough respect! They’re loyal, loving, and absolutely fierce! A donkey will curb-stomp a coyote, and even challenge mountain lions. They will bray if a farm animal gets tangled in fencing, and come to you when you call. Donkeys that feel like they have a home are worth their weight in gold!
Suppressed 300 Blackout in an AR-15 will do the trick. Also, leave one small entrance open (looking like a failure in the fence that they can squeeze through and sneak in) so they can come in with a coupleold hens in a small cage in that area as bait, then remotely close the entrance to trap them and take them out one by one with the AR-15.
the most hideous, bone chilling sound i have ever heard was coyotes shredding a cat in a deep arroyo (gulch) behind my parking spot in a campground in new mexico. we had told the new arrival not to let their cats out at night but they ignored us. damned coyotes didn't even eat the animal, who died in surgery. i keep my cats in a fenced yard here because coyotes will always get them otherwise. i also string a lattice of baling wire or string overhead because of the owls, etc.
A donkey will kill a coyote with ease. They will kill hyenas or any dog like animal quick. Donkeys are high intelligence and some say close to being as smart as the Dolphin
For a donkey its a "Territorial" thing, not necessarily protect the herd within, which they do. More than one adult donkey can cause the donkeys to get more social and thereby forget about their territorial protection.
Dogs lady, there are literally breeds just for keeping livestock safe from coyotes and wolves. Get a couple that are already trained and they'll take care of it.
YamiSphinx donkeys are just as good as goats they will happily take on and kill coyotes if they get to close don't underestimate the power of the donkey.
honestly i think donkeys are better overall. better bang for your buck as they live longer and require less maintenance. also their parasites arent transferable to other livestock
Yes it does sit next to a highway but I think a high powered pellet air rifle would be ideal to take out coyotes and be little easier next to the highway. I'd love to sit overnight on her lot and drop those coyotes with an air rifle 7 days a week.

Jaguar is to big for a donkey. But this is wild life, you humans are not the only ones at this planet. Stop go deeper into wild territorys and the problems are over. But human breed like rabbit....
Coyote resistant fence, no such thing as coyote proof fencing. If can't go over go under, if can't go over or under fake an id card wear a disguise and slip on the farm as a chicken inspector. Coyotes will find a way.
They really hv not that many predators to kill them so when they get so over populated then they come into pastures and yards so thats when ol dinky donkey comes into the picture lol they take care of the yotes for sure for sure
If the donkeys aren't enough, consider getting a Kangal or an Ovcharka (Caucasian Shepherd), they're bred to keep wolves away from livestock and they're fierce protectors!
Large Sheepdogs are definitely good, but don't underestimate standard to large-sized adult donkeys as guard animals. They're very territorial, and can be especially so towards canines; and will both bite viciously and slash at coyotes with their hooves, charging into fighting them, and intent in chasing them off; even going for the coyote's neck for the kill, stomping them to death, and to the point of flinging the coyote around to make sure it's dead. They're so determined to beat coyotes up that experienced donkey owners advise NOT getting in their way until they calm down on their own.
what a shame that humans have encroached on the majority of the land that makes it impossible for the coyotes to find their own natural source of food. a definite imbalance has occurred.
It's not do much that predators can't find food. It's just more convenient to get groceries in a barnyard where prey is fenced in and there for the taking. And since the last three meals were so easy, they keep coming back like absolutely anyone else would do, like birds who regularly visit feeders. Coyotes are just trying to survive. And if you present them with a banquet behind a fence, they'll keep coming back until the food is gone.

There is a vid of a hyena attacking a donkey, and the donkey kills the hyena with a bite to the neck. Donkeys are bad mofos.

I lived very close there for 6 years. Lots of wildlife in that area. Very nice area but you need to be very careful driving.
A couple of Great Pyrenees dogs would be more than efficient for this job as well.
Or Maremma, Akbash, Anatolia Shepard are all great livestock guardian dogs. Sounds like they really need a live stock guardian dog for that farm.
Donkeys will get the job done just fine
Donkeys are better in a lot of ways, and they eat the same food as the animals they protect.
