So last week we had about one inch of snow fall in my area. So as soon as the weather broke I got out to a local public hunting area, after my first set I was on my wat to the next set when i noticed fresh coyote tracks wandering through the fields so I trailed them for a while and after a few yards and found the critter killed a large field mouse and left it lay uncovered on the snow,after about thirty yards I found another frozen on top of the snow. I could tell the coyote definitely persued and killed these mice, mouthed them then left them.I continued on the prints for several hundred yards and found four more deserted kills, six in all. I suppose the prey were on the move and the coyote was taking advantage of the situation,probably planning on returning for his prizes. I haven't had the opportunity to go back and never did see fur that day(other than the mice and few shrew!) onyone have any other angles on this or see this behavior before?
