So many stories to read and speculate upon.I think the deer had the fawns in our barnyard because the big cows and the dogs made her feel safer.<br /><br />FC, can you imagine the look on his face as he dined? lol<br /><br />Linda, I hope we NEVER get cougars! I can't imagine having to be aware all the time of what is out in the bushes. The yotes are bad enough, but they rarely bother people.<br /><br />Merri, the boss hunted them as a boy. Once he and his buddies went on a nighttime skunk hunt with their dogs and found a huge den of them. His mother met them at the barnyard gate and made them strip and get into the watering trough before they came to the house. It was November! lol They got a week off from school because of it too. lolthreecolliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05811004278088768813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15171402.post-17825304014557724422015-07-27T19:40:46.857-04:002015-07-27T19:40:46.857-04:00TOo funny this....too funny.

We also have cougar/mountain lions...they will kill just about anything it seems. BUT YOU HAVE HUGE coyotes, nothing like the ones we have, although ours are good sized.<br /><br />I'll bet that coyote stunk for days.<br /><br />Linda<br />http://coloradofarmlife.wordpress.com<br />Terry and Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11016496778254072639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15171402.post-75731506662947091732015-07-27T14:33:10.004-04:002015-07-27T14:33:10.004-04:00I imagine that coyote's breath and I shudder.I imagine that coyote's breath and I shudder.R.Powershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04905593499136090763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15171402.post-72940919129688169942015-07-27T08:44:01.296-04:002015-07-27T08:44:01.296-04:00That is so cool!!! Boy, I thought I was weird. I...That is so cool!!! Boy, I thought I was weird. I found the remains of something furry out in my pasture, and ended up dragging it back home to get a better look (about the size of both hands put together, just fur, no gooey stuff). I was headed to the vet the next day so I threw it in the back of the truck and had them look at it for me. Turns out it was what was left of a fawn. They said it was common for deer to come just inside a fenced pasture to have their babies, as it's safer. Something got this one anyway. But I was excited that I had deer there. <br /><br />My city friends (in my former life) would have been horrified.<br /><br />I too would have stopped to take a picture of your furry pile. :)lizzybaxterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05560075141830422842noreply@blogger.com
