Coyotes are way too numerous and what occurred with your buck is very common. Studies have shown coyotes will wipe out 50-80% of fawns. We need to bring their numbers down. And notice that we don't see as many fox around? Coyotes wipe them out as well.

We did DNA thing on fawns per PGC and they now are finding the coyotes are no.1 killer like 70% and black bears next followed by bobcats....True on fox ...The doe seasons in wmu2g of pa need closed do to not seeing fawns..PGC blames bad habitat but they know its coyotes doing it ..

Congrats on your buck, I'm glad we can kill them on site here in N.C. but I know we don't kill enough of them.

Very nice buck! Someone stated the fox population dwindles when yotes numbers grow. Researchers found a link between fewer fox and Lyme disease. Fox eat field mice which are a link in the tick life cycle that carries Lyme. Yotes don't eat them like the foxes do. Yet another reason to work on their numbers.

Amazing buck! Pennsylvania's getting to be the same way. A friend shot a Booner last season at dusk and it was half stripped when he found it in the morning. This was within city limits of Pittsburgh!

Beautiful deer.
We have coyotes that are the size of wolves here in NY. They are an ongoing problem.
