"He doesn't look afraid at all" You're kidding right? That coyote is absolutely terrified. Tail between the legs, trying to get away, exposing the teeth, head down, arched back... All signs of an animal that is scared.
I think that submissive pose is normal for when an animal decides to go on the offensive. Ears back, eyes mostly closed, appendages protected. Maybe attacking is a scary proposition!
@@NickMirro No. It isn't. This is a Coyote on the attack. th-cam.com/video/NqVE9qfg7yI/w-d-xo.html Eyes wide open and ears up and moving to gather as much information as possible. Body stretched out and relaxed to be able to make quick movements. Trying to scare the "prey" into running as that is when coyotes (and wolves) attack.
@@KurNorock I guess you didn't see it limping at the end it was probably just hurt trying to scare the dog away without haveing to run on a hurt leg. +a yotie that size would take on a dog twice it's size you don't know the balls those animals got on them.
@@zakthompson6669 What is your point? Hurt leg or not, that coyote was terrified. My point remains entirely valid. Also, I know very well "the balls" that coyotes have on them and what they can and can't do. They are all over the damn place where I live and I encounter them all the time. A coyote against a dog twice its size that is also willing to fight, stands absolutely ZERO chance. Any coyote trying for a dog twice its size is either rabid, starving to death, or extremely young and inexperienced.
the yoties where I live can get to 80ish pounds and definitely are meaner and smarter then dogs but you really don't have a point unless your trying to have sympathy to something that would kill you if it had a chance. + you must have never see a coyote playing smart and luring a dog in so its four or five buddy's in the treeline can ambush a dog thats stupid enough to follow it
Exactly. It's surprising how many humans can't understand this. This Coyote didn't have the strongest hand but played it masterfully. If it was thinking human, it would be like, "Oh FFS, what is this shit? My paw is broken now I have to deal with this dumb ass puppy!? God damn sonofabitch!"
Or it was being a very smart animal and luring his prey to the rest of his pack. Coyote's are smart and dangerous. They should absolutely not be taken as something that is sacred or should be left alone. They're a danger to livestock, deer (which are endangered as it is), domestic dogs and cats and sometimes even small children.
+the slime team of minecraft Yes they do if they aren't vegetarian. If they don't kill the animals they eat then they pay someone else to kill the animals.
Sonny Galindo well no and yes. That is just a regular adult Eastern Coyote, but Eastern (Grey) Coyotes all have a good amount of wolf left in their dna, much more than normal Western Coyotes. They shouldn’t even really be considered Coyotes because they are typically double the size of your stereotypical Western Coyote. The East has fox which are the same size as Western Coyotes. Luckily we don’t have cougars though
I think you are looking at the typical threat display, coyotes and wolves both do it, the hunched back, hackles up, the idea is to look as big as possible, scare off the threat.
I did not knw that mange could kill animals. How can God's animals cure itself from mange? Also Jacob see my video on another topic on another topic give my video a look and thank you. th-cam.com/video/0i1fekgBW6Q/w-d-xo.html
F*** man I checked the upload it can go up to 1080p what kind of camera was around that could do that 10 years ago s*** damn good quality what the f*** did he use?
:D Good question! It was a Canon HG10 that was 1440x1080 with assymetrical pixels, so it fills a 1080 window. Also used a Canon 1.8x extender lens. Thought it was high tech at the time :-)
"He doesn't look afraid at all" No offense, but you don't seem to know much about canine posture. Head low and tail between the legs means he/she didn't want any trouble. Teeth bared and jumping at the dog like that meant 'stay away from me!'
It's not a dog man, seems pretty common for coyotes to posture like that with the tail swung between its legs when acting aggressive. Less to grab onto in a fight.
Yotes do this often when being aggressive or scared(many ppl seem to be misunderstanding the close connection between fear/aggression). Head low, teeth bared, back arched, rocking their head from side to side. Behavior of Coyotes, Wolves, & domesticated Dogs are radically different in many ways. Though it's the similarities we tend to notice.
Yote behavior is that way to draw in the dog in order to get it to follow to where the rest of the pack is and then kill it for food. The only good yote is a dead yote.
That is not true. Wild dogs tuck their tails like that to protect their genitals. You should check out african wild dogs vs hyenas. However domesticated dogs do as you describe. The same can be said about wild cats vs domesticated cats. Wild cats hide their tails when hunting. Domesticated cats flails it like dogs.
@@loganjeffrey4136 LOL. No, they're not Sherlock. No, they're not. But if you search for "Hyenas vs wild dogs" on youtube you would see how wild dogs behave when fighting hyenas.
That's an aggressive posture. By arching has back, baring his teeth and tucking his tail, he was telling the dog not to mess with him. Looks like it worked too. As far as people worried about the limp. The coyote was probably fine. It didn't look too bad and get hurt all the time. An old coyote is a beat up coyote.
+canadablake It's very defensive posturing. Tucking tail is not an attack posture, it's defensive. May be weak from not eating due to the paw. Also looks like it has mange, which can weaken and even kill animals.
Teresa Gallagher Please explain to me the difference between an aggressive coyote posture, a defensive coyote posture, and an attack posture. I'll give you a hint. the last two don't exist. That coyote didn't seem particularly threatened by the dog. The interaction was formal, and it was clearly the coyotes game. The dog just wanted to have a butt sniff and the coyote said no. Also, while the submissive posture may look similar, it's accompanied by retreat, not advance and a threat gape. And I don't think it's mange. Full hair on the tail and back legs, and that's the first noticeable sign we would see. So the only way you would be able to determine mange on this particular coyote would by checking it's belly between it's back legs to see if it's pink and raw.
I have live in Tyler Texas and have seen coyotes on the outskirts of the city patiently waiting beside highway 64 to cross. and in my own neighborhood I saw three one night coming home from work playing in the street. There are reports of people losing small dogs out of fenced backyards to the coyotes who jump over the fence with the pets in their mouth.
In my area coyotes are a threat to pets and young livestock. I never saw coyotes or raccoons here when I was a kid. Now they are everywhere. This is what happens when "cute animals" are taken as pets and then released when the owners can't handle them, and when predator populations are not managed intelligently.
Let's be clear. The coyote did not attack the dog. The owner, who can be heard trying to recall his dog, did not have control and the dog invaded the coyote, did not want a fight and did not look well but was defending itself. Humans have encroached on so many wild animal's habitats, act like fools--letting their cats roam in areas where coyotes are know to be and then whine and complain and want to shoot the wild animals for killing their pets. I have two large dogs and a cat, so I understand both sides. The wildlife needs a place, too. Take the precautions to protect your pets, accordingly.
I completely agree! Coyotes are beautiful, intelligent and highly social animals. It's a shame they are so demonised and misunderstood.. Humans are scared of what they don't understand.
***** I couldn't agree more! It is our responsibility to watch out for our pet's safety. You can't blame the coyotes; they are just trying to survive in a very harsh environment. The coyote doesn't comprehend the difference between a pet and any other prey. To them, it is just what they need to survive another day. Yet, humans make them the villain for doing what they were designed to do, rather than admitting it was their own fault. It's sad. I have cats and they stay indoors because we have a lot of coyotes and other predators in the area. That is *my* responsibility in order to protect them as well as the other animals (predator and prey species).
This was all staged. They know each other and have it in an enclosed fenced in area. It knows there is no way out or it would run off! Coyotes are NOT aggressive. It has already had it's paw attacked. They did this all to make a film.
Baloney. The dog did not attack the coyote. Clearly, it was just curious. The coyote charged the dog. People should not let their dogs off leash in the park. Also, there is no place for a coyote in a park where people and dogs are walking. An injured coyote is dangerous. Animal Control should retrieve it and put it down before it attacks a child. Coyotes in urban areas will escalate their aggression as their numbers increase and their fear decreases. It's so predictable scientists have even drawn up a table of the escalating steps. One can see it under Table 1 on CA's own state AG page. ipm.ucanr.edu/PMG/PESTNOTES/pn74135.html
To me the coyote was afraid (because of injury), the turn tucked tail, the flashing of the teeth was a warning but the dog sauntered in and the coyote moved away, the dog was probably oblivious to the coyote as danger. Coyote was in survival mode, I could tell something was wrong with it almost immediately. Coyote could not run away due to paw. Still interesting to see the coyote react that way, great body language.
The quality of this video, is impressive. _Definitely no attack though. Yote just defended itself. Since the dog invaded he's space, and the injured paw._ 💯💯
This video wouldn't have any thumbs down if you didn't use a misleading title. It was a very great piece of footage you had here.. Very surreal seeing the coyote put his head down and his tail between his legs when he approached the domesticated dog. They are so close in breed, you so completely different. Please re-title this video to something that actually makes sense - again this is a great piece of footage, it's a shame you had to clickbait it.
What would you call it? In the end, the coyote did attack an unleashed pet dog. By comparison, the wolf spider clip on my channel is drastically better if every possible way and yet stalled at 10% of this.
Nick Mirro I know exactly what you mean.. Being a TH-cam creator, I know exactly how much power a thumbnail/title combo can have, so I understand completely where you are coming from; it's very frustrating to have a great video but nobody watches it because you aren't using clickbait. People don't really care much about the video though if they aren't getting what they are expecting. I too have had videos stagnant for 2 years, then changed the title and thumbnail and all of a sudden BOOM! Your thumbnail is just fine, perfect actually.. It's an actual clip of the video and it's the best possible thumbnail you can get without making a fake one (which would make more people mad). You can change the title to something like "Coyote vs Pet Dog CLOSE CALL (NEARLY Attacked!)" The capitalized words do help draw attention in videos like this, and I think people would still watch a video where someone is in danger - a lot of people just like to get scared, they don't want to see an animal rip a part another animal. I've seen many extremely violent animals attack videos on TH-cam, and they all have thumbs down just because of how graphic they are. Your video is something rare; it's like that video of that Bald Eagle that landed on that ladies porch just 5 feet away. Just personally, I like seeing animals in their natural environment. When I clicked your video, I wasn't expecting the coyote to rip the dogs leg off (nor did I want to see that), but I was expecting them to maybe stand on their hind legs and wrestle a little bit - to me, a nip at the leg was hardly an attack, even though it does fit the definition. I'm just rambling now - overall I loved the video, just felt a little mislead. Not saying you have to change your title either, just food for thought. The title might bring in more views, but it brings in negative views, which has adverse effects on your channel if you are trying to build. If you are just trying to milk views and don't really want to invest time in building a channel, I completely understand that too - and I'd advise to keep the title the same, because clearly it's working ;)
+no its funny how no one understands that. the problem is getting a lot worse in Iowa even. almost every week now you hear about another person's dog getting attacked by coyotes.
I appreciate so much your kind attitude towards the hurt coyote. I'm so happy people like you exist.You can appreciate the dogs and their owner but still have feelings for the hurt wild animal.
The way that Coyote first stood up & went a little crazy,I thought we were looking at a Rabies infected animal.It all became clear when he lifted his paw in obvious distress.I hope he recovered..
agree with rabies or distemper as a possibility but the foot wasn't injured I don think. Most likely it was a grass burr he stepped on, see that all the time
***** Hey Cody. There are signs everywhere saying dogs must be on leashes. We have official dog parks in Dallas and this isn't one. It is called Harry Moss "native area." There is a large native prairie and woodland hiking trails. Its a large park (~200 acres) but with nearby residents disregarding the ordinances, letting their dogs run loose, kids, bikers and naturalists avoid the place. Both of my nieces hate it because of this problem. I almost got bit by an unleashed russian wolfhound last week while riding a mountain bike. Definitely NOT a dog park. OfficialVanDyce got it right. The law supports his position.
Coyotes act the same when not wounded. Shoot them if you see them. They will attack you given the chance. Never let them get the confidence. They just killed an 18 year old girl not too long ago.
LisaMarie Hines lol are you a newer dog owner? I do agree that dogs are animals and unpredictable regardless of how their trained. But no I still love having my 90lb long hair black German Shepherd off leash, but I do it with common sense. I let her loose hiking in the CO mountains with me and she stays right next to me. I don't let her loose next to a busy road. I'm more worried about stupid humans than my dog, they're more unpredictable and dangerous.
poor coyote just trying to chill and the dog thinks he's just a friendly wanting to play. Not a good place for a coyote to rest even with a hurt paw wonder if it even made it. Doubt it could hunt like that
The coyote is injured or has arthritis and it thinks the approaching dog has come to test it's health status. The coyote thinks it has to get up and show the dog that it's still able to fight and move around/flee. The coyote doesn't know that the dog is well fed and just looking to socialize out of curiosity. The coyote thinks the dog is looking for an easy meal, or trying to wear it down. If the dog wanted to kill the coyote as safely as possible it would try to circle behind the coyote and bite it's anus and testicles over and over again until the coyotes insides spilled out of it's backside. That is how dogs/wolves kill bigger prey to maximize safety. A true predator doesn't want it's face bitten by it's prey. The coyote thinks this dog is a predator hunting it. You see the coyote try to move away from the dog and protect it's anus from a rear attack by tucking it's tail, and raising it's back to look bigger. The coyote senses the dog has moved in closer and falsely thinks the dog is about to try and rear attack. Although the coyote has protected it's anus, it's back leg tendons would be the secondary target. It can't lose those tendons and escape. It panics and wheels around to try an attack of it's own. The dog isn't interested in getting bitten and gives the coyote more space. The coyote is under tremendous stress and just wants to get as far away from the dog as possible. The coyote is not submitting and would bite the crap out of that dog if it got close enough. Biting is not submission. The tail tuck in this case is to defend the anus from a rear attack.
One of the saddest things I saw was coyote once. It had been daylight for about two hours when I was driving to town and I seen a coyote that was dead along the road. Then about 3/4 of a mile later I seen another one in a panic state. It was quite obvious it was searching. It wasn't even caring about traffic. It would just stand in the the middle of the road looking and start running along the road some more.
Speaking as someone who was a biologist for several years working with both Red Wolves and Coyotes, you should do a little research into Coyote body language. Then you would understand what's happening a lot better. You could tell the Coyote was injured AND pretty old within the first 5 seconds of the video.
@@NickMirro Yes. The body language of the coyote are submissive gestures... The coyote was old to begin with, plus being injured. The dogs.....not understanding the submissive gestures reacted as you saw. So.....this definitely was not a case of a coyote attacking pet dogs. Although.....that does happen. Coyotes look at small breed dogs and puppies as a food source. In my neighborhood just last summer a pack of three coyotes took a Jack Russel Terrier that was being walked on a leash by a retired couple. We have examples of alligators getting dogs, hawks and eagles taking dogs, and coyotes taking dogs. But this is not the case here. Thank you for posting though!!! I hope I wasn't too harsh in my criticism........I actually enjoyed watching the video!
@@jlhookkick1 You didn't say what I got wrong. Any animal attacking (not just threatening) is in danger and lowers its ears, squints and tucks it tail. Nothing to do with submission. Submissive animals don't bare their teeth and pin their ears back.
@@NickMirro Again...you should research that more. That coyote was injured, and exhibiting CLASSIC submissive behavior. It's classic coyote behavior 101 that any first year field zoology student would know. That's what I'm trying to point out. That's what you got wrong. And yes....submissive coyotes bare their teeth and pin back their ears. Again.....a little research goes a long way. Not trying to be a jerk about it....but this type of thinking encourages the death of a lot of animals that don't need to die.
Where I live does not make any difference. I have lived in both rural and urban neighborhoods. The only place a dog should be allowed off a leash is on your own property. Beyond that, the owner needs to be responsible and leash their animal. Period.
A great example of the coyote threat display, arched back and hackles up to make it look bigger, as well as the exposed teeth to back it up. Unless that leg heals up by itself that coyote is probably going to be unable to hunt and will starve in the end.
More likes unleashed dog attacks wounded coyote. Leash your pets. You don't want them attacking people or animals like this. Even if they win, they could come back sick or rabid from coming into contact with infected blood.
+SURREY CROSSING ...are you in charge of 'this Universe' ? 'should' .... says you ? Who cares what you think when it's directly in conflict with thousands of years of experience humans have had with domesticated dogs ?
+billy payne Why? They're an animal that has been encroaching closer to Public Spaces for a while now. They're very dangerous to domestic animals and small children. KILL the damn thing!
Adam J. Hartley I have no idea what you are talking about. I agreed that they should be Killed. Sarcasm? Where? This: :His "shitty idealism." I sugest you try again! This time leave out "SHITTY and let me know (In Plain English) where the :Idealism is.. Other than the fact that's what your STUPID idea of Sarcasm is suppose to be! IT'S SHITTY! PS: Is there something missing here also? It makes NO SENSE "They're an americans? Who? The Hogs? Actually. Forget it. Enough of this Double Talk it's way past ... mire than enough!
Nick Mirro Just for your knowledge Nick, I just did a reply to him. I have NO Idea what the Hell he is talking about! Sarcasm? Shitty Idealism? I'm done with this SHIT!
Wow that defensive stance by the coyote was incredible.. Absolutely terrifying to see what nature is capable of programming in to these beautiful creatures
Interesting point. I'm sure they look pretty hideous when attacking an animal you are caring for. Even squirrels seem vile when they are tearing the bark off of a Japanese maple. Outside of that, coys remind me of jackals. At least to me a jackal looks good even though it is an insult to be called one :-)
There is nothing good about having a coyote around! Buddies dog was outside Chesapeake male, pack of yotes came in and killed the 95 lb male. I say shoot as many as you can because you’ll never kill all of them. Also most states have open season year round on them.
@@briand7868 I live out in the country in Kansas and I know the general area of a pack of 20 yotes about a mile away (My dog & I ran into them in the forest around 4:50am 2 years ago watching the sun come up) however it still baffles me when people at night will leave their dog in the backyard hours on end. I have seen curious adolescent yotes run across my neighborhood street almost looking to see what it could bait into the forest.
this coyote was not hurt. that is how they bait other dogs into fighting. they will act injured, then once the dog attacks the "injured" coyote, another group of coyotes will kill the dog. you can see the coyote walk just fine when it finds out that the dog doesn't follow it or attack
I had two cats that disappeared which we think coyotes got. But the fact of the matter is, coyotes were here before cats and people, and it's us humans who have encroached on the coyote's natural habitant. You can't blame the coyotes for preying on cats because small animals are their natural prey. It's best to bring your cats in before dusk, and keep them in until mid morning.
Where do you people come up with we encroached on their habitat? They follow human populations as we tend to remove the predators of the coyotes. Most places in the USA never had coyotes until early to early mid 1900's.
You think. I live in as area where we see coyotes , and hear them. My cat, that I don't leave out. Outdoor cats are hit by cars and killed by dogs. She was missing for 2 months, and our animal control called me that she had a frightened cat that had been hit by a cat,( she only had a road burn). She was fine. My other neighbor lets her white cat out, and he disappears for weeks. It's sad that coyotes get blamed. They may kill cats on rare occasions, but little dogs are the only pets at risk. Little dogs can dig under fences, get hit by cars, are targeted by birds of prey and other dogs. Leave wildlife be. We are such a destructive species that they barely have a chance, and peoples stupid phobias are destroying innocents.
sometimes dogs have a purpose and can't so much if on a leash. the dogs were scoping out the area and so found an injured coyote which the dog owner could of helped out the coyote if he had the right abilities. or he could of killed it and ate it and let it die honorably in a fight to the death with the dogs.
Yeah, but sometimes it's for the dogs protection, so they don't run off and get hurt. If the area was fenced it would be a bit safer for the dog to just roam. I just know how dumb people in the cities can be and let their dogs off the leash outside in an unfenced area and then get surprised they ran away, got run over, or hurt someone. Not all but just too many to make me feel this way. Ha.
+Naida Rizvic It's okay to keep your dogs off leashes if it's a safe, closed up area. But if it's a prairie, forest, mountainous area then it's not such a good idea.
The limping is a fake injury that most coyotes use to lure other predators close to where the pack is laying in wait to attack the unsuspecting. The fact that these animals use such a technique is very impressive to say the least . I have watched this on several occasions with pet dogs as well as other wild life
Milspecmachine You are the only one to comment on this video that knows anything at all about coyotes. The tail tuck and limp is classic behavior. Had the dogs pursued it, he would have led them right to the waiting pack and they would have had house dog for lunch. Happens to rabbit and deer hunting dogs in the Carolinas where I live all the time
Milspecmachine I was going to say the same thing about the limp. even our dogs will hitch up like that on occasion. Interesting to see people who have no fieldcraft speaking out on this. We have a bunch of Coyote/mountain lion here in hills of Woodside California. Coyotes are effed up animals they'll trick and and even "befriend" dogs and "con" them into coming out of the yard so they can eat em. They'll attack dogs on leashes if they think they can get away with it as well. They do keep the deer population down a bit but they are a bit out of control now because the liberals won't allow hunting up here. I guess they'd rather have deer, coyote mountain lions die of disease, inbreeding and getting hammered by cars and motorcycles. People who don't understand wild life except to think it is cute and pretty tend to do a bunch more harm than good. Kind of sad to see deer with deformities living longer than they normally would or coyote getting tagged by a car, injured and unable to hunt who then comes around homes hurting pets. all could be fix with proper control and balance.
Nice job photographing that. I gotta dog that likes to chase coyotes and they always take off. That coyote had his tail between his legs. That means he is being self protective and timid.
Awesome video! I've never seen such submissive posture before...nice little bump to warn the dog off and no harm done. Poor thing with the hurt paw :( I'm glad to see coyotes in my area...we were overwhelmed with small critters such as rabbits and groundhogs. Then they finally moved in and little critter population is way down again! Yay! Still waiting on the wolves but I think our area is too urban.
0:56 you'd never realize he was hurt in that sort of stance, just looks vicious. Wild definitely is boss, even when hurt the way it stands looks like it's ready to take you down.
+micmastaz Just because it has little weight does not mean the muscle in their jaws are weak. They are quite strong, actually, along with sharp teeth and powerful leg muscle and sharp claws. And us humans, unless you are a mutant ninja turtle, you are pretty much defenseless if you don't have a weapon. If it jumps on you and your on the ground, it will go for the neck, and kill you. But...coyotes don't really do that so yeah.
Marie Peterson Marie... They are very small animals. A average human male should EASILY be able to take on a coyote. We don't have claws or insane strength, but I know for a fact I could crush a coyotes legs or neck. And how is it supposed to jump six feet in the air and get my neck? It's possible it could kill me if it got lucky, or if I was drunk, but if I was aware I was under attack and not sleeping or something, I can't imagine it would, it is literally 1/9MIN-1/6MAX of my size.
micmastaz You can't crush bones dude, with your bare hands. And most people aren't six feet, around 5'6 or 5'8 and if there is a pack, you could trip and easily become prey.And if it was stalking you, and you had no idea the attack would come swiftly and quickly, unable for you to even think.
I agree with the previous post…this is a coywolf which is becoming more common. In addition, it seemed to be more in a defensive mode rather than offensive due to its injured leg!
WTF!!! Why are you calling this Coyote Attacks unleashed pet dog? What I just saw was a Coyote minding its own business and a so called ' unleased pet dog' allowed by its owner to intrude on the Coyote!! What the hell did you expect the wild animal to do? It did not harm the damn dog... and it even had a hurt leg. It is a natural predator and it has the right to exist just as much as that spoiled, domesticated dog does! Live and let live!! So sick of people acting as if the predator canines are the enemy!! Leave them the hell alone!!
+tn2win4fr2 I was happy to see the coyote run the dog off. That park is full of unleashed dogs and horse you know what over its entire 300 acres. Think I'm on your side.
...And what kind of pet owner stands around filming a scenario which could've ended in their dog's death? Coyotes can take down mature white tailed buck, but the owner thinks his dog is safe because it's large. Not so at all. And yeah, it's cruel to set your animal loose on another wounded animal.
actually a coyote by itself cannot take down a matured white tail buck. If the buck was sick or injured maybe its possible. otherwise a coyote needs a pack. Just though you should know i see coyotes even packs get bullied by white tails more often than the other way around. (mostly during rut)
poor coyote. I wish the humans would leave him ALONE! HE is definitely trying to rest, he's got a hurt leg that must heal. unfortunately the humans with their dog's won't leave him in peace to heal. that makes me mad and want to do something to protect him. what's wrong with people idk!!
Great photography there buddy! Clearly the coyote was minding it's own business. The pet dog was not under control by its Owner clearly. IT'S a classic stand off by both canines. Neither of them was visiblely injured in thier clash. Other than the Coyote who demonstrated his right front paw was possible injured prior to the pet dogs encounter. Thank you for the video and the opportunity too witness a clash of classic nature. WR,🇨🇦🇺🇸🇨🇦🇺🇸🤓🤓🤔🤔👏👏
***** Coyotes are nothing more than pests. They don't keep animal populations down, they kill for fun. that's a fact. They will kill anything that is either smaller then them, or not able to defend themselves. A hungry coyote won't think twice before pouncing on a little kid playing in the yard. A group of them would probably attempt to attack a grown man. I've seen coyotes ruthlessly attack deer, and squirrels and not even eat them. I've been told by multiple people that large packs will attack cows, and literally torture them before killing them. I'll say it again coyotes are nothing more then pests, and I'd gladly laugh while crushing one's throat.
+GravelsNotAFood They have killed a few children over the past 100 years, yes. You make it sound like they're a major cause of childhood death. Get real.
The coyote might not have had a hurt paw. He seemed to be walking fine on it. He may have been playing hurt to bolster the dog's confidence and lure him closer for a sneak attack. I've heard of packs of coyotes which hide in the bushes on the outskirts of L.A., they send their smallest member out to lure large stray dogs back into the bushes where they gang up and eat him. They're devious.
yeah I heard that also or they act like they just want to play but get them closer and closer then their are 6 other coyotes waiting for them. very smart hunting animals!!
Jay Harmon yeah I know sometimes they can be loners but were I live you can see there is more then just one in a pack!! now dont get me wrong long as they are not close were I live you can hear all of them at night yelping.. expecially when they have killed something they yelp like crazy!
Coyotes play like they're injured to drop the inhibitions of large breed dogs and lure them in, then strike with a vengeance. Coyotes are also known to "play dead," then suddenly leap to their feet, going for the jugular of the curious unfortunate dog who comes to investigate.
The only devious ones are the humans. You both are vicious, You need to convince yourself that these innocent, just going about their lives coyotes deserve your evil BS. There is a horse rescue near here where the owner stopped riding her horses in the winter because sick locals like you were running coyotes over with snowmobiles on purpose on her property. We went out and dug trenches that would wreck snowmobiles. It worked.. the killers lost a couple of snowmobiles, and one got a broken nose.
Coyote probably chose that spot to keep away from other predators since humans frequent the area. Good place to heal if you know that the other predators will avoid this place.
This coyote was actually very scared. He was hurt and his tail was tucked pretty tight. The growl and baring of the teeth means nothing. The way he walked suggested rabies, a coyote with a raised back and lowered head is not natural!!
I hope other people noticed, that coyote was faking an injured leg! :) Possibly to lure a weaker dog to try to attack only to surprise the dog and attack back. Normally, the tactic of a lone coyote will be to lure a domestic dog to chase him. And often, the happy-go-lucky domestic dog will chase the lone coyote right into the pack of coyote who will then out-number the domestic dog and absolutely murder it. Owners, be smart and be safe with your pets.
+Yamikoto yes; destroy any coyote you have access to. They are varmints and of no value. they work in packs and will kill your family pets and small goats, etc.
I don't agree with the idea of destroying a balancing element of nature, such as the effective predator that is the coyote. I only say do not interact with them when you have an encounter with them in the wild, try to be safe with yourself and your family, and be a responsible owner of your dog, cat, or farm animals. There are better options than coyote genocide... And I say this after losing half my flock of chickens as well as my cat to wild coyotes. The loss of the cat was my fault, not theirs...
lol. faking and injured leg. stupidity. coyotes hate being out in open. and laying there with three strange dogs coming at it, i'd say poor situational assessment.
This isn't a coyote. It's a wolf. You can tell by the size/shape of the ears, nose, and tail as well as the general larger size of the animal. Coyotes are smaller and pointier.
That's what I thought. It is way bigger and broader than the coyote's we have here in Western Washington. There are no wolves here for the coyote's to interbreed with.
The yote was putting on a strong front against the Dog because of his hurt paw. "He doesn't look afraid at all" - he probably was but he did a damn good job of hiding it.
Oh my god some of you can be mean. I am afraid to say anything. Did you guys not see the coyote was minding his own business when the dog came up. How many warnings did the coyote need to give. He even started to run away but the damn dog followed. No I am not a coyote loving freak that thinks all coyotes are innocent creatures. In my neighborhood 6 pets have been eaten in the last year and a half. Always the owners fault. They let their dogs or cats run free with out anyone watching them. People move to where I live with to be with the wild life they say they want to see deer and wild bunnies and all that. However coyotes come with that. If you want to keep your pets alive be responsible, have a fence, keep them leashed and don't leave them out 24 hours a day. I do understand hunting and agree with it if done humanely and responsibly but if you want to see wild life and still have pets take care of them. If you would rather not worry about your pets don't live or go where the coyotes and mountain lions or wolves are.
Wow, I see so many pathetic people in these comments claiming that coyotes are vermin because they killed their pets. Learn to keep your pets inside or on leashes when you walk them, I don't live in an area with coyotes but I still walk my cats on a leash and they don't care plus it stops them getting hit by a car or something. To all those saying we need to kill the coyotes, no we absolutely do not and should not. If the coyote species were to decrease by too much or even become extinct then the entire food chain will be thrown into disarray, mice and rabbit population will explode along with other coyote prey. That would just be the beginning, more problems would arise, some worse than the others, all because some members of the mankind couldn't stand their precious pets getting eaten despite it being the owners fault. Everything has a reason to be on this planet and we can't go around screwing it up.
kdawson36 You're missing the point. Iv'e done research on coyotes, and while the explosion of this population turned problem is in fact Humanity's fault, that doesn't mean we have to just sit back and let it progress. In order to ensure the future of our survival of not only man but animal alike, we have to reduce the population enough to sustain a balance in the ecosystem. I know it's quite sad that animals have to pay for our mistakes, but that's the reality of life. Kill a few, save a lot more. Now, if we were to have it your way and let coyotes' population fluorish freely, than that will cause serious problems down the road. Coyotes already breed at a rate that is hard even for hunters to control, so imagine something twice that amount. We will start to see vast reductions of prey within the ecosystem, and eventually extinction will occur. When that happens, we will than start to see coyotes move into cities looking for food because the population is too great and resources have already been worn out in suburbs/inland areas. When animals are hungry, they will do anything to fill their bellies, and if that means attacking children, so be it. They will also start to introduce themselves into our agricultural fields, where we grow our food, and finish that off as well. Our lives depend heavily on agriculture, and if that is gone, than so will we. This is a scary thing. I hope I've at least opened your mind a bit more on the topic. :)
Falco Lombardi Don't worry, I understand that the coyotes do need to be culled but most of the people here think they need to be driven to extinction. I should have said that shouldn't I. But thank you anyway for mentioning it.
exactly this animal is no different than your dog except for one main thing it isn't going to get a bowl of alpo placed in front of him in the morning he has to get his food on his own
If people like you had the same protective point of view towards black people and other minorities/humans that you have towards animals the world would be a better place.
Lannis31 Did I say anything about having a bad vie towards black people or other minorities/humans? I think people of all colours and religions are the same, I couldn't care less about what people look like and believe in
Great Video check out the behavior at first its tail was severely tucked between its legs but then when it had to defend itself its tail came out to a more dominant position. It first tried to show that it did not want to fight but then when it had to its tail came out to be more dominant like ok let's fight.
Interesting points! What of the thought that the coyote could have let things go after the dog sniffed where it was laying. It didn't have to return to face the dog.
I had a German Shepherd that had gigatism or something, was over 100 lbs and the size of a wolf. No one could believe it when they saw him, especially cops who always wanted to know what breeder I'd gotten him from. A group of coyotes tried to start some shit when we were out hiking once and that dog turned them into a pack of bitches. I almost broke my ankle chasing him because he got off the leash and tried to run one of them down.
I instantly thought rabies, there's no doubting it. I'm amazed that of all the TH-cam animal experts, you seem to be the only one who said so. Well done! I'll bet some rabid animal attacked and bit the paw/leg, so there's transfer point and reason for limping. The jaw action is a clear sign that hydrophobia (rabies in its advanced stages makes drinking impossible and death comes from either organ failure or dehydration) has taken over and death is unstoppable at that stage, less than 48 hours. It's an horrifically painful ending.
@@BigShaneGillis Since it's in Texas, it's definitely not an Eastern Coyote (Canis latrans var.). It's also probably not a red wolf, although they _were_ native to Texas they're only found in captivity within Texas at the time the video was uploaded. It's probably not a Mexican wolf, there's only ~250 of them in the US, in the wild. Texas Parks and Wildlife notes that wolves are currently extirpated from Texas, so I wouldn't expect a recent wolf x coyote hybrid. I would anticipate that it's a Plains Coyote (C. l. latrans) or Southeastern Coyote (C. l. frustor.) given that they're two of the larger subspecies of coyotes and are found in Texas currently. There's a similarly named Texas Plains Coyote, but they're smaller than the Plains Coyote.
So glad you said this Coyote is beautiful animal, im sorry he has busted paw, I hope his injury heals, Coyotes get a bad rap and im sick of it, ppl dont complain about wolves stealing cattle when they hardly anyone complains, bt when the Coyote does oh its dramatic, most americans dont seem to understand the Coyote is just another beautiful wild animal trying to survive the best way it knows how, so thank you for showing this Coyote respect, just for that im goung to subscribe :)
Must be pretty cold where you live! It's a rough life for those critters. I think i read somewhere they need about 2 1/2 lbs of food a day when it's cold. And if they don't get, well eventually they freeze to death on top of hay bales.
+Andrew Kim Perhaps faking weakness to encourage offense, to respond with a setup counter offense!I believe I heard wolves fake injury to lure dogs to where their pack is.
That coyote is lucky the dog wasn't an American Pitbull. I watched a video one time with Joe Rogan talking about a story about an American Pitbull killed nine coyotes - th-cam.com/video/bbInhc52Yt8/w-d-xo.htmlm55s American Pitbulls were bred to take on bulls, bears, and wild boar. To see what American Pitbulls can do, watch a video called *Pit Bull Vs Bull in Maxela* where an American Pitbull takes on a bull by itself. For more info on the American Pitbull breed that even talks about how they were used to take on lions, watch a video interview with a well-know expert on the breed called *ALL ABOUT THE AMERICAN PIT BULL TERRIER WITH RICHARD F. STRATTON*
it seemed more like just an interaction between the coyote and dog. no big deal. of course the dog is interested and the coyote is obviously injured and is going to find a private place to heal or die of hunger if he can't hunt anymore. BTW we are allowed to hunt and so should the coyote.
The hair was matted up and he was acting really odd. I'd bet money that he had rabies. He's not quite foaming at the mouth yet but he's definitely showing other symptoms. The unkempt coat, odd behavior, the staggering, all signs of rabies.
Clearly Rabies. The limp is misleading people into thinking that's what's wrong, but I can guarantee that's where another rabid animal attacked it, it's probably not a bad injury but sore and getting infected, but it's how the virus has spread in this case.

"He doesn't look afraid at all"
You're kidding right? That coyote is absolutely terrified. Tail between the legs, trying to get away, exposing the teeth, head down, arched back... All signs of an animal that is scared.
I think that submissive pose is normal for when an animal decides to go on the offensive. Ears back, eyes mostly closed, appendages protected. Maybe attacking is a scary proposition!
@@NickMirro No. It isn't. This is a Coyote on the attack. th-cam.com/video/NqVE9qfg7yI/w-d-xo.html
Eyes wide open and ears up and moving to gather as much information as possible. Body stretched out and relaxed to be able to make quick movements.
Trying to scare the "prey" into running as that is when coyotes (and wolves) attack.
@@KurNorock I guess you didn't see it limping at the end it was probably just hurt trying to scare the dog away without haveing to run on a hurt leg. +a yotie that size would take on a dog twice it's size you don't know the balls those animals got on them.
@@zakthompson6669 What is your point? Hurt leg or not, that coyote was terrified. My point remains entirely valid.
Also, I know very well "the balls" that coyotes have on them and what they can and can't do. They are all over the damn place where I live and I encounter them all the time.
A coyote against a dog twice its size that is also willing to fight, stands absolutely ZERO chance. Any coyote trying for a dog twice its size is either rabid, starving to death, or extremely young and inexperienced.
the yoties where I live can get to 80ish pounds and definitely are meaner and smarter then dogs but you really don't have a point unless your trying to have sympathy to something that would kill you if it had a chance. + you must have never see a coyote playing smart and luring a dog in so its four or five buddy's in the treeline can ambush a dog thats stupid enough to follow it
The Coyote wasn't trying to attack rather he was trying to avoid a fight....he seems injured from some previous encounter. Nice footage, tho
Real comment i give +1
@@alfa-psi maybe a human trap yes
Exactly. It's surprising how many humans can't understand this. This Coyote didn't have the strongest hand but played it masterfully. If it was thinking human, it would be like, "Oh FFS, what is this shit? My paw is broken now I have to deal with this dumb ass puppy!? God damn sonofabitch!"
The limp is fake, I've seen it many times they fain injury to lure in its victims.
I dont see a coyote attacking a dog.... i see a coyote trying to mind its own business...
yeah the coyote obviously was saying hay look at my tail between my legs I'm hurt and just want to die in piece. or something like that.
+FarOutFarSpace *in peace
Or it was being a very smart animal and luring his prey to the rest of his pack. Coyote's are smart and dangerous. They should absolutely not be taken as something that is sacred or should be left alone. They're a danger to livestock, deer (which are endangered as it is), domestic dogs and cats and sometimes even small children.
+Matt Wittlinger Humans are a danger to all other creatures in this world. They are the cruelest killers in history
+the slime team of minecraft Yes they do if they aren't vegetarian. If they don't kill the animals they eat then they pay someone else to kill the animals.
this yote looks like he has some wolf in him his shape is off
Sonny Galindo well no and yes. That is just a regular adult Eastern Coyote, but Eastern (Grey) Coyotes all have a good amount of wolf left in their dna, much more than normal Western Coyotes. They shouldn’t even really be considered Coyotes because they are typically double the size of your stereotypical Western Coyote. The East has fox which are the same size as Western Coyotes. Luckily we don’t have cougars though
I think you are looking at the typical threat display, coyotes and wolves both do it, the hunched back, hackles up, the idea is to look as big as possible, scare off the threat.
G56AG dogs also do it
@moorejames moorejames They do and will, look up Coywolf

@@NickMirro tbh it is
"He doesn't look afraid at all" No offense, but you don't seem to know much about canine posture. Head low and tail between the legs means he/she didn't want any trouble. Teeth bared and jumping at the dog like that meant 'stay away from me!'
It's not a dog man, seems pretty common for coyotes to posture like that with the tail swung between its legs when acting aggressive. Less to grab onto in a fight.
@@thehairball5526 he was infact SO aggressive that he didn't move an inch until the dog came to him and then he ran away.
Sick aggression btw
Yotes do this often when being aggressive or scared(many ppl seem to be misunderstanding the close connection between fear/aggression). Head low, teeth bared, back arched, rocking their head from side to side. Behavior of Coyotes, Wolves, & domesticated Dogs are radically different in many ways. Though it's the similarities we tend to notice.
@@thehairball5526 he was talking about the dog ….
Yote behavior is that way to draw in the dog in order to get it to follow to where the rest of the pack is and then kill it for food. The only good yote is a dead yote.
it's not attacking the dog. It was growling because it is hurt and saw the dog as a threat so he ran off to be safe.
@Dog Breath there trouble no dought about it. I live in Oklahoma. Here they stay away from humans for the most part.
@Dog Breath
Myphots
coyote start bite the dog so he attack the dog
it wasn't hurt, it was being submissive.
@@connor-cx5wc ... is this a joke?
the Coy was afraid and submissive from the start, was just defending itself especially already injured.
@Dog Breath hugger*
That is not true. Wild dogs tuck their tails like that to protect their genitals. You should check out african wild dogs vs hyenas. However domesticated dogs do as you describe.
The same can be said about wild cats vs domesticated cats. Wild cats hide their tails when hunting. Domesticated cats flails it like dogs.
Hyenas aren't dogs lol
@@munchyman3 Nope. It is true. Ask any expert. Go to a zoo. Anything. They'll tell you.
@@loganjeffrey4136 LOL. No, they're not Sherlock. No, they're not. But if you search for "Hyenas vs wild dogs" on youtube you would see how wild dogs behave when fighting hyenas.
The coyote does NOT want to fight.....he puts his tail between his legs as a sign of submission.
+Stephen Jones Yes, you are correct ! :)
That's an aggressive posture. By arching has back, baring his teeth and tucking his tail, he was telling the dog not to mess with him. Looks like it worked too. As far as people worried about the limp. The coyote was probably fine. It didn't look too bad and get hurt all the time. An old coyote is a beat up coyote.
+canadablake It kinda looks like a "I don't wanna fight you, but I will if I have to" kinda posture
+canadablake It's very defensive posturing. Tucking tail is not an attack posture, it's defensive. May be weak from not eating due to the paw. Also looks like it has mange, which can weaken and even kill animals.
Teresa Gallagher
Please explain to me the difference between an aggressive coyote posture, a defensive coyote posture, and an attack posture. I'll give you a hint. the last two don't exist. That coyote didn't seem particularly threatened by the dog. The interaction was formal, and it was clearly the coyotes game. The dog just wanted to have a butt sniff and the coyote said no. Also, while the submissive posture may look similar, it's accompanied by retreat, not advance and a threat gape. And I don't think it's mange. Full hair on the tail and back legs, and that's the first noticeable sign we would see. So the only way you would be able to determine mange on this particular coyote would by checking it's belly between it's back legs to see if it's pink and raw.
I have live in Tyler Texas and have seen coyotes on the outskirts of the city patiently waiting beside highway 64 to cross. and in my own neighborhood I saw three one night coming home from work playing in the street. There are reports of people losing small dogs out of fenced backyards to the coyotes who jump over the fence with the pets in their mouth.
In my area coyotes are a threat to pets and young livestock. I never saw coyotes or raccoons here when I was a kid. Now they are everywhere. This is what happens when "cute animals" are taken as pets and then released when the owners can't handle them, and when predator populations are not managed intelligently.
Let's be clear. The coyote did not attack the dog. The owner, who can be heard trying to recall his dog, did not have control and the dog invaded the coyote, did not want a fight and did not look well but was defending itself. Humans have encroached on so many wild animal's habitats, act like fools--letting their cats roam in areas where coyotes are know to be and then whine and complain and want to shoot the wild animals for killing their pets. I have two large dogs and a cat, so I understand both sides. The wildlife needs a place, too. Take the precautions to protect your pets, accordingly.
I completely agree! Coyotes are beautiful, intelligent and highly social animals. It's a shame they are so demonised and misunderstood.. Humans are scared of what they don't understand.
Kathryn Jennings and The Red Fennec Fox I couldn't agree more. It is a shame that these beautiful animals are so misunderstood.
***** I couldn't agree more! It is our responsibility to watch out for our pet's safety. You can't blame the coyotes; they are just trying to survive in a very harsh environment. The coyote doesn't comprehend the difference between a pet and any other prey. To them, it is just what they need to survive another day. Yet, humans make them the villain for doing what they were designed to do, rather than admitting it was their own fault. It's sad.
I have cats and they stay indoors because we have a lot of coyotes and other predators in the area. That is *my* responsibility in order to protect them as well as the other animals (predator and prey species).
This was all staged. They know each other and have it in an enclosed fenced in area. It knows there is no way out or it would run off! Coyotes are NOT aggressive. It has already had it's paw attacked. They did this all to make a film.
Baloney. The dog did not attack the coyote. Clearly, it was just curious. The coyote charged the dog. People should not let their dogs off leash in the park. Also, there is no place for a coyote in a park where people and dogs are walking. An injured coyote is dangerous. Animal Control should retrieve it and put it down before it attacks a child. Coyotes in urban areas will escalate their aggression as their numbers increase and their fear decreases. It's so predictable scientists have even drawn up a table of the escalating steps. One can see it under Table 1 on CA's own state AG page. ipm.ucanr.edu/PMG/PESTNOTES/pn74135.html
To me the coyote was afraid (because of injury), the turn tucked tail, the flashing of the teeth was a warning but the dog sauntered in and the coyote moved away, the dog was probably oblivious to the coyote as danger. Coyote was in survival mode, I could tell something was wrong with it almost immediately. Coyote could not run away due to paw. Still interesting to see the coyote react that way, great body language.
The quality of this video, is impressive. _Definitely no attack though. Yote just defended itself. Since the dog invaded he's space, and the injured paw._ 💯💯
This video wouldn't have any thumbs down if you didn't use a misleading title. It was a very great piece of footage you had here.. Very surreal seeing the coyote put his head down and his tail between his legs when he approached the domesticated dog. They are so close in breed, you so completely different. Please re-title this video to something that actually makes sense - again this is a great piece of footage, it's a shame you had to clickbait it.
The clip had no views for 2 years. I then changed the title and improved the thumbnail.
What would you call it? In the end, the coyote did attack an unleashed pet dog.
By comparison, the wolf spider clip on my channel is drastically better if every possible way and yet stalled at 10% of this.
Nick Mirro I know exactly what you mean.. Being a TH-cam creator, I know exactly how much power a thumbnail/title combo can have, so I understand completely where you are coming from; it's very frustrating to have a great video but nobody watches it because you aren't using clickbait. People don't really care much about the video though if they aren't getting what they are expecting. I too have had videos stagnant for 2 years, then changed the title and thumbnail and all of a sudden BOOM!
Your thumbnail is just fine, perfect actually.. It's an actual clip of the video and it's the best possible thumbnail you can get without making a fake one (which would make more people mad). You can change the title to something like
"Coyote vs Pet Dog CLOSE CALL (NEARLY Attacked!)"
The capitalized words do help draw attention in videos like this, and I think people would still watch a video where someone is in danger - a lot of people just like to get scared, they don't want to see an animal rip a part another animal. I've seen many extremely violent animals attack videos on TH-cam, and they all have thumbs down just because of how graphic they are. Your video is something rare; it's like that video of that Bald Eagle that landed on that ladies porch just 5 feet away. Just personally, I like seeing animals in their natural environment. When I clicked your video, I wasn't expecting the coyote to rip the dogs leg off (nor did I want to see that), but I was expecting them to maybe stand on their hind legs and wrestle a little bit - to me, a nip at the leg was hardly an attack, even though it does fit the definition.
I'm just rambling now - overall I loved the video, just felt a little mislead. Not saying you have to change your title either, just food for thought. The title might bring in more views, but it brings in negative views, which has adverse effects on your channel if you are trying to build. If you are just trying to milk views and don't really want to invest time in building a channel, I completely understand that too - and I'd advise to keep the title the same, because clearly it's working ;)
+Nick Mirro WRONG. The pet attacked the coyote. Funny that even after Top10Archive's post, you just still don't get it.
in other words you lied to get peoples attention. democrat very much?
Title should be "Unleashed pet dog attacks coyote" Coyote was just minding his business haha
+Macade White Its funny how the coyote was feigning injury to try an lure the dog into an ambush. Coyotes travel in packs.

Coyotes ain't afraid of dogs, no matter the size
I appreciate so much your kind attitude towards the hurt coyote. I'm so happy people like you exist.You can appreciate the dogs and their owner but still have feelings for the hurt wild animal.
If have shot it dead
Horseshit!
The way that Coyote first stood up & went a little crazy,I thought we were looking at a Rabies infected animal.It all became clear when he lifted his paw in obvious distress.I hope he recovered..
Same. What a fate, broken foot and no Walmart or doctor around :(
agree with rabies or distemper as a possibility but the foot wasn't injured I don think. Most likely it was a grass burr he stepped on, see that all the time
It felt threatened, of course it will lash out, put a damn leash on your pet
***** Its not a dog park. Where did you get that idea? Thanks for making the thread all sleazy.
***** Hey Cody. There are signs everywhere saying dogs must be on leashes. We have official dog parks in Dallas and this isn't one. It is called Harry Moss "native area." There is a large native prairie and woodland hiking trails. Its a large park (~200 acres) but with nearby residents disregarding the ordinances, letting their dogs run loose, kids, bikers and naturalists avoid the place. Both of my nieces hate it because of this problem. I almost got bit by an unleashed russian wolfhound last week while riding a mountain bike.
Definitely NOT a dog park. OfficialVanDyce got it right. The law supports his position.
Coyotes act the same when not wounded. Shoot them if you see them. They will attack you given the chance. Never let them get the confidence. They just killed an 18 year old girl not too long ago.
I love having my dog off leash. But the difference is my dog obays me off leash.
LisaMarie Hines lol are you a newer dog owner? I do agree that dogs are animals and unpredictable regardless of how their trained. But no I still love having my 90lb long hair black German Shepherd off leash, but I do it with common sense. I let her loose hiking in the CO mountains with me and she stays right next to me. I don't let her loose next to a busy road. I'm more worried about stupid humans than my dog, they're more unpredictable and dangerous.
poor coyote just trying to chill and the dog thinks he's just a friendly wanting to play. Not a good place for a coyote to rest even with a hurt paw wonder if it even made it. Doubt it could hunt like that
The coyote is injured or has arthritis and it thinks the approaching dog has come to test it's health status. The coyote thinks it has to get up and show the dog that it's still able to fight and move around/flee. The coyote doesn't know that the dog is well fed and just looking to socialize out of curiosity. The coyote thinks the dog is looking for an easy meal, or trying to wear it down. If the dog wanted to kill the coyote as safely as possible it would try to circle behind the coyote and bite it's anus and testicles over and over again until the coyotes insides spilled out of it's backside. That is how dogs/wolves kill bigger prey to maximize safety. A true predator doesn't want it's face bitten by it's prey. The coyote thinks this dog is a predator hunting it. You see the coyote try to move away from the dog and protect it's anus from a rear attack by tucking it's tail, and raising it's back to look bigger. The coyote senses the dog has moved in closer and falsely thinks the dog is about to try and rear attack. Although the coyote has protected it's anus, it's back leg tendons would be the secondary target. It can't lose those tendons and escape. It panics and wheels around to try an attack of it's own. The dog isn't interested in getting bitten and gives the coyote more space. The coyote is under tremendous stress and just wants to get as far away from the dog as possible. The coyote is not submitting and would bite the crap out of that dog if it got close enough. Biting is not submission. The tail tuck in this case is to defend the anus from a rear attack.
“Look out Mr. Coyote! That dogs trying to eat your ass!” 😂😂
Poor thing it's got a busted paw!🐺
One of the saddest things I saw was coyote once. It had been daylight for about two hours when I was driving to town and I seen a coyote that was dead along the road. Then about 3/4 of a mile later I seen another one in a panic state. It was quite obvious it was searching. It wasn't even caring about traffic. It would just stand in the the middle of the road looking and start running along the road some more.
I seen it I seen it I seen it!
@@actionjksn 😂
Speaking as someone who was a biologist for several years working with both Red Wolves and Coyotes, you should do a little research into Coyote body language. Then you would understand what's happening a lot better. You could tell the Coyote was injured AND pretty old within the first 5 seconds of the video.
Did I get something wrong?
@@NickMirro Yes. The body language of the coyote are submissive gestures... The coyote was old to begin with, plus being injured. The dogs.....not understanding the submissive gestures reacted as you saw. So.....this definitely was not a case of a coyote attacking pet dogs. Although.....that does happen. Coyotes look at small breed dogs and puppies as a food source. In my neighborhood just last summer a pack of three coyotes took a Jack Russel Terrier that was being walked on a leash by a retired couple. We have examples of alligators getting dogs, hawks and eagles taking dogs, and coyotes taking dogs. But this is not the case here. Thank you for posting though!!! I hope I wasn't too harsh in my criticism........I actually enjoyed watching the video!
@@jlhookkick1 You didn't say what I got wrong. Any animal attacking (not just threatening) is in danger and lowers its ears, squints and tucks it tail. Nothing to do with submission. Submissive animals don't bare their teeth and pin their ears back.
@@NickMirro Again...you should research that more. That coyote was injured, and exhibiting CLASSIC submissive behavior. It's classic coyote behavior 101 that any first year field zoology student would know. That's what I'm trying to point out. That's what you got wrong. And yes....submissive coyotes bare their teeth and pin back their ears. Again.....a little research goes a long way. Not trying to be a jerk about it....but this type of thinking encourages the death of a lot of animals that don't need to die.
The owner of that dog is an idiot for not having it on a leash...
Dagger 323 Dogs don't belong on a leash.
If a dog is a pet, then yes, it belongs on a leash.
You don't live in the country do you?
Where I live does not make any difference. I have lived in both rural and urban neighborhoods. The only place a dog should be allowed off a leash is on your own property. Beyond that, the owner needs to be responsible and leash their animal. Period.
Seeker I'm assuming you're yet another irresponsible pet owner…
1:20 - Coyote is probably quite afraid, actually, especially with that injured paw. That's what motivates him to drive off the dog.
A great example of the coyote threat display, arched back and hackles up to make it look bigger, as well as the exposed teeth to back it up. Unless that leg heals up by itself that coyote is probably going to be unable to hunt and will starve in the end.
More likes unleashed dog attacks wounded coyote.
Leash your pets. You don't want them attacking people or animals like this. Even if they win, they could come back sick or rabid from coming into contact with infected blood.

Such an underrated joke
Wow that defensive stance by the coyote was incredible.. Absolutely terrifying to see what nature is capable of programming in to these beautiful creatures
Heliox I agree!
I'm glad for it, but there was no attacking. Excellent clickbait
Never thought of Coyotes as "beautiful". To each his own, I suppose.
They arent so attractive when they are attacking farm animals or pets.
Interesting point. I'm sure they look pretty hideous when attacking an animal you are caring for. Even squirrels seem vile when they are tearing the bark off of a Japanese maple. Outside of that, coys remind me of jackals. At least to me a jackal looks good even though it is an insult to be called one :-)
Coyotes are very beautiful once made into fur coats.

Could the Coyote have Rabies.
city slickers DON'T know nothing bout coyotes!
u aint jus whistlin dixie !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
There is nothing good about having a coyote around! Buddies dog was outside Chesapeake male, pack of yotes came in and killed the 95 lb male. I say shoot as many as you can because you’ll never kill all of them. Also most states have open season year round on them.
@@briand7868 I live out in the country in Kansas and I know the general area of a pack of 20 yotes about a mile away (My dog & I ran into them in the forest around 4:50am 2 years ago watching the sun come up) however it still baffles me when people at night will leave their dog in the backyard hours on end. I have seen curious adolescent yotes run across my neighborhood street almost looking to see what it could bait into the forest.
this coyote was not hurt. that is how they bait other dogs into fighting. they will act injured, then once the dog attacks the "injured" coyote, another group of coyotes will kill the dog. you can see the coyote walk just fine when it finds out that the dog doesn't follow it or attack
+Zack Salstrom It was out in the field, the dogs came to him.
I had two cats that disappeared which we think coyotes got. But the fact of the matter is, coyotes were here before cats and people, and it's us humans who have encroached on the coyote's natural habitant. You can't blame the coyotes for preying on cats because small animals are their natural prey. It's best to bring your cats in before dusk, and keep them in until mid morning.
Where do you people come up with we encroached on their habitat? They follow human populations as we tend to remove the predators of the coyotes. Most places in the USA never had coyotes until early to early mid 1900's.
Gavin: Coyotes are native to my region. Most development is on land that was indeed coyote habitat.
You think. I live in as area where we see coyotes , and hear them. My cat, that I don't leave out. Outdoor cats are hit by cars and killed by dogs. She was missing for 2 months, and our animal control called me that she had a frightened cat that had been hit by a cat,( she only had a road burn). She was fine. My other neighbor lets her white cat out, and he disappears for weeks. It's sad that coyotes get blamed. They may kill cats on rare occasions, but little dogs are the only pets at risk. Little dogs can dig under fences, get hit by cars, are targeted by birds of prey and other dogs. Leave wildlife be. We are such a destructive species that they barely have a chance, and peoples stupid phobias are destroying innocents.

Could the Coyotte have rabies?
I don't know why people think it's a good idea to keep their dogs off leashes.
because they don't want the dog to feel like their nothing but chain animals
+Antonio Zacarias they never do
sometimes dogs have a purpose and can't so much if on a leash. the dogs were scoping out the area and so found an injured coyote which the dog owner could of helped out the coyote if he had the right abilities. or he could of killed it and ate it and let it die honorably in a fight to the death with the dogs.
Yeah, but sometimes it's for the dogs protection, so they don't run off and get hurt. If the area was fenced it would be a bit safer for the dog to just roam. I just know how dumb people in the cities can be and let their dogs off the leash outside in an unfenced area and then get surprised they ran away, got run over, or hurt someone. Not all but just too many to make me feel this way. Ha.
+Naida Rizvic It's okay to keep your dogs off leashes if it's a safe, closed up area. But if it's a prairie, forest, mountainous area then it's not such a good idea.
The limping is a fake injury that most coyotes use to lure other predators close to where the pack is laying in wait to attack the unsuspecting. The fact that these animals use such a technique is very impressive to say the least . I have watched this on several occasions with pet dogs as well as other wild life
Milspecmachine You are the only one to comment on this video that knows anything at all about coyotes. The tail tuck and limp is classic behavior. Had the dogs pursued it, he would have led them right to the waiting pack and they would have had house dog for lunch. Happens to rabbit and deer hunting dogs in the Carolinas where I live all the time
Very possible. I agree.
Milspecmachine I was going to say the same thing about the limp. even our dogs will hitch up like that on occasion. Interesting to see people who have no fieldcraft speaking out on this. We have a bunch of Coyote/mountain lion here in hills of Woodside California. Coyotes are effed up animals they'll trick and and even "befriend" dogs and "con" them into coming out of the yard so they can eat em. They'll attack dogs on leashes if they think they can get away with it as well. They do keep the deer population down a bit but they are a bit out of control now because the liberals won't allow hunting up here. I guess they'd rather have deer, coyote mountain lions die of disease, inbreeding and getting hammered by cars and motorcycles.
People who don't understand wild life except to think it is cute and pretty tend to do a bunch more harm than good. Kind of sad to see deer with deformities living longer than they normally would or coyote getting tagged by a car, injured and unable to hunt who then comes around homes hurting pets. all could be fix with proper control and balance.
+Milspecmachine: Absolutely Correct!
+BadazzShovelhead agree
Oh wow! That wolf was scared at first, look at tail. That’s why he stood his ground.
Nice job photographing that. I gotta dog that likes to chase coyotes and they always take off. That coyote had his tail between his legs. That means he is being self protective and timid.
He didn’t attack him. He nipped as a way to chase them away. You give coyotes a bad rap with this misleading title.
We admire your efforts, while we are at home watching your wildlife effort
Awesome video! I've never seen such submissive posture before...nice little bump to warn the dog off and no harm done. Poor thing with the hurt paw :(
I'm glad to see coyotes in my area...we were overwhelmed with small critters such as rabbits and groundhogs. Then they finally moved in and little critter population is way down again! Yay! Still waiting on the wolves but I think our area is too urban.
+Danielle Mercier Thanks. They are amazing animals. I was surprised to at its posture. Looks like a Jackal :-)
Something is wrong with that coyote. It's either very sick or very injured.
0:56 you'd never realize he was hurt in that sort of stance, just looks vicious. Wild definitely is boss, even when hurt the way it stands looks like it's ready to take you down.
+FireBomberBassist They're like 30 pounds. If that thing fucking kills you, you were either sleeping or out numbered. Or a weak bitch.
+micmastaz Just because it has little weight does not mean the muscle in their jaws are weak. They are quite strong, actually, along with sharp teeth and powerful leg muscle and sharp claws. And us humans, unless you are a mutant ninja turtle, you are pretty much defenseless if you don't have a weapon. If it jumps on you and your on the ground, it will go for the neck, and kill you. But...coyotes don't really do that so yeah.
Marie Peterson Marie... They are very small animals. A average human male should EASILY be able to take on a coyote. We don't have claws or insane strength, but I know for a fact I could crush a coyotes legs or neck. And how is it supposed to jump six feet in the air and get my neck? It's possible it could kill me if it got lucky, or if I was drunk, but if I was aware I was under attack and not sleeping or something, I can't imagine it would, it is literally 1/9MIN-1/6MAX of my size.
micmastaz
You can't crush bones dude, with your bare hands. And most people aren't six feet, around 5'6 or 5'8 and if there is a pack, you could trip and easily become prey.And if it was stalking you, and you had no idea the attack would come swiftly and quickly, unable for you to even think.
+Marie Peterson correction. you cant crush bone with your bare hands. ever met someone who can? doesnt sound like it lol
Poor coyote :( He did NOT attack that dog. It was reluctant self defence and they didn't even fight.
I agree with the previous post…this is a coywolf which is becoming more common. In addition, it seemed to be more in a defensive mode rather than offensive due to its injured leg!
WTF!!! Why are you calling this Coyote Attacks unleashed pet dog? What I just saw was a Coyote minding its own business and a so called ' unleased pet dog' allowed by its owner to intrude on the Coyote!! What the hell did you expect the wild animal to do? It did not harm the damn dog... and it even had a hurt leg. It is a natural predator and it has the right to exist just as much as that spoiled, domesticated dog does! Live and let live!! So sick of people acting as if the predator canines are the enemy!! Leave them the hell alone!!
+tn2win4fr2 I was happy to see the coyote run the dog off. That park is full of unleashed dogs and horse you know what over its entire 300 acres. Think I'm on your side.
...And what kind of pet owner stands around filming a scenario which could've ended in their dog's death? Coyotes can take down mature white tailed buck, but the owner thinks his dog is safe because it's large. Not so at all. And yeah, it's cruel to set your animal loose on another wounded animal.
actually a coyote by itself cannot take down a matured white tail buck. If the buck was sick or injured maybe its possible. otherwise a coyote needs a pack. Just though you should know i see coyotes even packs get bullied by white tails more often than the other way around. (mostly during rut)

That coyote is obviously terrified wtf
He's all cute and cuddly, until a nice little 8 year old walks around him. Coyotes are not pets, they are killers. They WILL kill children.
+GravelsNotAFood: Completely Agree! They have done exactly that!
***** Coyotes are nothing more than pests. They don't keep animal populations down, they kill for fun. that's a fact. They will kill anything that is either smaller then them, or not able to defend themselves. A hungry coyote won't think twice before pouncing on a little kid playing in the yard. A group of them would probably attempt to attack a grown man. I've seen coyotes ruthlessly attack deer, and squirrels and not even eat them. I've been told by multiple people that large packs will attack cows, and literally torture them before killing them. I'll say it again coyotes are nothing more then pests, and I'd gladly laugh while crushing one's throat.
+GravelsNotAFood They have killed a few children over the past 100 years, yes. You make it sound like they're a major cause of childhood death. Get real.
The coyote might not have had a hurt paw. He seemed to be walking fine on it. He may have been playing hurt to bolster the dog's confidence and lure him closer for a sneak attack. I've heard of packs of coyotes which hide in the bushes on the outskirts of L.A., they send their smallest member out to lure large stray dogs back into the bushes where they gang up and eat him. They're devious.
yeah I heard that also or they act like they just want to play but get them closer and closer then their are 6 other coyotes waiting for them. very smart hunting animals!!
Jessica S. Coyotes where I live aren't pack animals.
Jay Harmon yeah I know sometimes they can be loners but were I live you can see there is more then just one in a pack!! now dont get me wrong long as they are not close were I live you can hear all of them at night yelping.. expecially when they have killed something they yelp like crazy!
Coyotes play like they're injured to drop the inhibitions of large breed dogs and lure them in, then strike with a vengeance. Coyotes are also known to "play dead," then suddenly leap to their feet, going for the jugular of the curious unfortunate dog who comes to investigate.
The only devious ones are the humans. You both are vicious, You need to convince yourself that these innocent, just going about their lives coyotes deserve your evil BS. There is a horse rescue near here where the owner stopped riding her horses in the winter because sick locals like you were running coyotes over with snowmobiles on purpose on her property. We went out and dug trenches that would wreck snowmobiles. It worked.. the killers lost a couple of snowmobiles, and one got a broken nose.
Coyote probably chose that spot to keep away from other predators since humans frequent the area. Good place to heal if you know that the other predators will avoid this place.
Was there any update?
Did you get help for the injured wolf?
This coyote was actually very scared. He was hurt and his tail was tucked pretty tight. The growl and baring of the teeth means nothing. The way he walked suggested rabies, a coyote with a raised back and lowered head is not natural!!
awwww
3 legged coyote walks into a bar and says I am looking for the man that shot my paw
Okay, boomer.
I hope other people noticed, that coyote was faking an injured leg! :) Possibly to lure a weaker dog to try to attack only to surprise the dog and attack back. Normally, the tactic of a lone coyote will be to lure a domestic dog to chase him. And often, the happy-go-lucky domestic dog will chase the lone coyote right into the pack of coyote who will then out-number the domestic dog and absolutely murder it. Owners, be smart and be safe with your pets.
+Yamikoto yes; destroy any coyote you have access to. They are varmints and of no value. they work in packs and will kill your family pets and small goats, etc.
+Yamikoto oh for fuck's sake.
I don't agree with the idea of destroying a balancing element of nature, such as the effective predator that is the coyote. I only say do not interact with them when you have an encounter with them in the wild, try to be safe with yourself and your family, and be a responsible owner of your dog, cat, or farm animals. There are better options than coyote genocide... And I say this after losing half my flock of chickens as well as my cat to wild coyotes. The loss of the cat was my fault, not theirs...
lol. faking and injured leg. stupidity. coyotes hate being out in open. and laying there with three strange dogs coming at it, i'd say poor situational assessment.
+Yamikoto the coyote also needs an anti-biotic shot, slight mange.
Is this not a wolf? Aren't coyotes smaller?
This isn't a coyote. It's a wolf. You can tell by the size/shape of the ears, nose, and tail as well as the general larger size of the animal.
Coyotes are smaller and pointier.
Note to self, always keep dog on leash. Poor coyote, I hope his leg healed up.
I'll cure him with a bullet for ya
the coyote dose not want to fight
That is not a coyote; that's a coywolf. Very beautiful.
I thought it looked more like a wolf
Yes, this.
man i think you're correct. I don't want to say it (I live in Dallas too) but the head is too big to be a coyote. scary
Adam Perry Its a CoyoWolf ....look it up on this thing called the internet
That's what I thought. It is way bigger and broader than the coyote's we have here in Western Washington. There are no wolves here for the coyote's to interbreed with.
The yote was putting on a strong front against the Dog because of his hurt paw. "He doesn't look afraid at all" - he probably was but he did a damn good job of hiding it.
The Coyotes looks much beautiful with their grayish hair.
Oh my god some of you can be mean. I am afraid to say anything. Did you guys not see the coyote was minding his own business when the dog came up. How many warnings did the coyote need to give. He even started to run away but the damn dog followed. No I am not a coyote loving freak that thinks all coyotes are innocent creatures. In my neighborhood 6 pets have been eaten in the last year and a half. Always the owners fault. They let their dogs or cats run free with out anyone watching them. People move to where I live with to be with the wild life they say they want to see deer and wild bunnies and all that. However coyotes come with that. If you want to keep your pets alive be responsible, have a fence, keep them leashed and don't leave them out 24 hours a day. I do understand hunting and agree with it if done humanely and responsibly but if you want to see wild life and still have pets take care of them. If you would rather not worry about your pets don't live or go where the coyotes and mountain lions or wolves are.
..
Wow, I see so many pathetic people in these comments claiming that coyotes are vermin because they killed their pets. Learn to keep your pets inside or on leashes when you walk them, I don't live in an area with coyotes but I still walk my cats on a leash and they don't care plus it stops them getting hit by a car or something. To all those saying we need to kill the coyotes, no we absolutely do not and should not. If the coyote species were to decrease by too much or even become extinct then the entire food chain will be thrown into disarray, mice and rabbit population will explode along with other coyote prey. That would just be the beginning, more problems would arise, some worse than the others, all because some members of the mankind couldn't stand their precious pets getting eaten despite it being the owners fault. Everything has a reason to be on this planet and we can't go around screwing it up.
kdawson36 You're missing the point. Iv'e done research on coyotes, and while the explosion of this population turned problem is in fact Humanity's fault, that doesn't mean we have to just sit back and let it progress. In order to ensure the future of our survival of not only man but animal alike, we have to reduce the population enough to sustain a balance in the ecosystem. I know it's quite sad that animals have to pay for our mistakes, but that's the reality of life. Kill a few, save a lot more.
Now, if we were to have it your way and let coyotes' population fluorish freely, than that will cause serious problems down the road. Coyotes already breed at a rate that is hard even for hunters to control, so imagine something twice that amount. We will start to see vast reductions of prey within the ecosystem, and eventually extinction will occur. When that happens, we will than start to see coyotes move into cities looking for food because the population is too great and resources have already been worn out in suburbs/inland areas. When animals are hungry, they will do anything to fill their bellies, and if that means attacking children, so be it. They will also start to introduce themselves into our agricultural fields, where we grow our food, and finish that off as well. Our lives depend heavily on agriculture, and if that is gone, than so will we. This is a scary thing.
I hope I've at least opened your mind a bit more on the topic. :)
Falco Lombardi Don't worry, I understand that the coyotes do need to be culled but most of the people here think they need to be driven to extinction. I should have said that shouldn't I. But thank you anyway for mentioning it.
exactly this animal is no different than your dog except for one main thing it isn't going to get a bowl of alpo placed in front of him in the morning he has to get his food on his own
If people like you had the same protective point of view towards black people and other minorities/humans that you have towards animals the world would be a better place.
Lannis31 Did I say anything about having a bad vie towards black people or other minorities/humans? I think people of all colours and religions are the same, I couldn't care less about what people look like and believe in
Great Video check out the behavior at first its tail was severely tucked between its legs but then when it had to defend itself its tail came out to a more dominant position. It first tried to show that it did not want to fight but then when it had to its tail came out to be more dominant like ok let's fight.
Interesting points! What of the thought that the coyote could have let things go after the dog sniffed where it was laying. It didn't have to return to face the dog.
Nick Mirro May have gotten nervous and panicked ???
Did he have a busted paw, or was he just playing coyote?

I had a German Shepherd that had gigatism or something, was over 100 lbs and the size of a wolf. No one could believe it when they saw him, especially cops who always wanted to know what breeder I'd gotten him from. A group of coyotes tried to start some shit when we were out hiking once and that dog turned them into a pack of bitches. I almost broke my ankle chasing him because he got off the leash and tried to run one of them down.

I think that coyote has rabies. He's showing the common side effects. Aww, poor dog.
He would be aggressive not defensive. It’s injured and scared.
I instantly thought rabies, there's no doubting it. I'm amazed that of all the TH-cam animal experts, you seem to be the only one who said so. Well done! I'll bet some rabid animal attacked and bit the paw/leg, so there's transfer point and reason for limping. The jaw action is a clear sign that hydrophobia (rabies in its advanced stages makes drinking impossible and death comes from either organ failure or dehydration) has taken over and death is unstoppable at that stage, less than 48 hours. It's an horrifically painful ending.
This thing's huge for a coyote, I bet it's actually a red wolf
TheFirst94hours nah plain old Eastern (grey) Coyote
@@BigShaneGillis Since it's in Texas, it's definitely not an Eastern Coyote (Canis latrans var.).
It's also probably not a red wolf, although they _were_ native to Texas they're only found in captivity within Texas at the time the video was uploaded.
It's probably not a Mexican wolf, there's only ~250 of them in the US, in the wild.
Texas Parks and Wildlife notes that wolves are currently extirpated from Texas, so I wouldn't expect a recent wolf x coyote hybrid.
I would anticipate that it's a Plains Coyote (C. l. latrans) or Southeastern Coyote (C. l. frustor.) given that they're two of the larger subspecies of coyotes and are found in Texas currently. There's a similarly named Texas Plains Coyote, but they're smaller than the Plains Coyote.
So glad you said this Coyote is beautiful animal, im sorry he has busted paw, I hope his injury heals, Coyotes get a bad rap and im sick of it, ppl dont complain about wolves stealing cattle when they hardly anyone complains, bt when the Coyote does oh its dramatic, most americans dont seem to understand the Coyote is just another beautiful wild animal trying to survive the best way it knows how, so thank you for showing this Coyote respect, just for that im goung to subscribe :)

no. they dont show injuries, it shows weakness when they show they are hurt. thats why they eat their on throw up too.
+Andrew Kim Perhaps faking weakness to encourage offense, to respond with a setup counter offense!I believe I heard wolves fake injury to lure dogs to where their pack is.
+arf dunp yes.thats what they do. otherwise if they are really hurt they rarely show they are
That coyote is lucky the dog wasn't an American Pitbull. I watched a video one time with Joe Rogan talking about a story about an American Pitbull killed nine coyotes - th-cam.com/video/bbInhc52Yt8/w-d-xo.htmlm55s
American Pitbulls were bred to take on bulls, bears, and wild boar. To see what American Pitbulls can do, watch a video called *Pit Bull Vs Bull in Maxela* where an American Pitbull takes on a bull by itself. For more info on the American Pitbull breed that even talks about how they were used to take on lions, watch a video interview with a well-know expert on the breed called *ALL ABOUT THE AMERICAN PIT BULL TERRIER WITH RICHARD F. STRATTON*
it seemed more like just an interaction between the coyote and dog. no big deal. of course the dog is interested and the coyote is obviously injured and is going to find a private place to heal or die of hunger if he can't hunt anymore. BTW we are allowed to hunt and so should the coyote.
So Nick whT did you do to help this coyote with a busted paw other than use it as a form of video entertainment ? Get well soon ..
Took u that long to figure out he had a wounded paw?

What's the Coyote doing? It looks twisted at one point.
The hair was matted up and he was acting really odd. I'd bet money that he had rabies. He's not quite foaming at the mouth yet but he's definitely showing other symptoms. The unkempt coat, odd behavior, the staggering, all signs of rabies.
+thersaholycow It's normal coyote behaviour. (except for the limping)
Clearly Rabies. The limp is misleading people into thinking that's what's wrong, but I can guarantee that's where another rabid animal attacked it, it's probably not a bad injury but sore and getting infected, but it's how the virus has spread in this case.
