Dead Cow Cam: Coyote Fever!

All the vultures are launching.



All birds crouched to launch.

Coyote has just skidded to a halt.

Self-selected as the slowest and dumbest Black Vulture.

Coyotes run in and flush the vultures off the carcass over and over. I don't see them go after a specific one, just bluffing them off.
Hump still intact. Tough hide. They have reached into the carcass and cleaned out everything they can get to. Picking away. It's about 2/5ths gone.

I'm surprised they coyote hasn't gone after the hump... It definitely has the teeth to get in there.
