I killed a 44lb male while turkey hunting two years ago. It was in the process of killing a small dog that had been chasing a deer. The coyote busted out of a briar patch, grabbed the little dog. The dog wiggled free three times, each time running toward my buddy and me. The last time, the yote was in range and I killed it. I swear, that little dog was waiting for us at the end of the farm lane with a smile on his face as if to say thanks! :)

I assume that is what he was doing. We could hear him yapping along down in the bottom of a ravine. We were set on a ridge top. He turned and came up the hill to the ridge top and started back toward us...then the coyote busted out of the briars, making a gawd-awful growl and nailed him. It was one of the coolest things I have ever seen in the woods.
