Buck Attacked by Coyotes

Its a fight for survival and a sad yet sobering sight as this injured buck is relentlessly pursued by two coyotes across the South Dakota landscape.

[@preachinoldschool5726]

Coyotes remind me of some Politicians, except coyotes are more honest & believable.

[@carlschnackel3051]

The buck has an arrow sticking out of his right side. You can see it at the 0:45 mark. Hopefully there will be a hunter trailing him.

[@jacqueholder2507]

that poor buck is limping do to humans being shity shots. why won't they put th poor animal out of its misery instead of watching it be eaten alive by nasty coyotes. this is why not everyone should hunt. some dobt respect the wildlife and dont deserve what it has to offer. shameful.

[@annabelle2361]

No - he is limping because the coyotes attack the legs.

[@mikem.2078]

@Jacque Holder ... My thoughts exactly. If you are going to hunt, you have to have ultimate respect and treatment of said animals. BTW I could see the arrow sticking out of him at around 2:21 and a couple seconds past that, and 2:52 or so. Simply disgusting some human put an arrow into him and didn't do his full duty.

Nature ...

[@veramann]

Most people believe that God created all the animals on Earth. Then, they get confused by the killing and eating of animals. This is why human beings should question religious teachings.

[@vivalabad6]

I'm not sure why this was posted on a channel seemingly promoting bow hunting...this video is a prime example of why bow hunting should not be allowed. The buck has been injured by humans, and is now suffering. This is the only reason the coyotes are pursuing it.

[@BowHunterPlanet]

You are correct. This is a prime example of why practice is critical to any sport. I also want to point out that we don’t run away from mistakes we face them and in archery like any other sport this can happen. It could have been a gun shot just as well.

@@enderlynxwilloze7935 I never mentioned coyotes. I said when I go into the Wild. You probably have never gone into the Wild and, therefore, don't realize there are other animals there, like, Grizzly Bear, Black Bear, Mountain Lion, Lynx, Bobcat among many others.

You will always find irrational ppl wherever you go, even when it comes to nature; you can argue all you want, but in the end you just can't reason with crazy.

Lions and Hyenas fight since they go after the same prey. We are fighting coyotes going after our prey, deer. It’s nature :)

Looks theres soemthing sticking out the back

[@homesteaderwant2b]

That was not ab attack. It was testing.

[@eatwhatukiii2532]

This is their method of attack. Since they are so much smaller in relation they use this tactic to take down larger prey. Coyotes will relentlessly "test", or rather pester, a deer until they tire it or it makes a mistake dodging one of their bites and they can cripple it just enough for it to fall down, and that's when they begin feeding on it, privates first then eating inward, while the deer is still alive to feel it all. It won't die until a major artery is torn and it slowly bleeds to death. People often find deer almost half-eaten in this way, STILL ALIVE and have to call a game warden because they can't legally shoot the deer themselves to put it out of its misery. This is why I HATE coyotes.

[@williammawk1720]

There is NO ARROW sticking out of that deer. The coward coyotes have already gotten ahold of him and done some damage . Coward coyotes love to ham string animals before they start eating the prey alive.

[@marcrawlinson9746]

In full screen.... there is an arrow just below the spine. :45/46seconds when he turns.

[@williammawk1720]

I stand corrected gentlemen. I watched that the first time several times but could not see it, but now after you pointed it out I do see it, maybe my new glasses arn't as good as I thought. It's a shame that does happen in hunting. We all should and need to practice untill we are perfect shots but even then it still happens sometimes.

[@theoriginal668]

Coyotes would never hunt something that large. They usually hunt small pray such as hares, squirrels, mice, ground squirrels and sometimes small deer.

[@fresian2007]

Eating is not cowardly.

[@enderlynxwilloze7935]

JR Revolt no! Coyotes should not be killed for things that all wild predators do! It’s ok if coyotes eat deer

[@chitinskin9860]

Yeah, they need some yote control. Not like deer are overpopulating faster than hunters can manage them because all of our better predators were killed off. Not like coyotes eat invasive species like house cats and pigs which do way more damage overall. People thinking like that are the reason why a tertiary predator is acting like an apex one on half the continent. Not to mention that most of your "control" methods actually make things worse. Just be cautious, no need to shoot every carnivore you see for looking in your direction.

Bowhunting is not humane at all

[@fermiticus4034]

As if being stalked and slowly killed by coyotes is any kind of "humane". A well placed arrow will see the animal dead in under one minute...much faster than the slow, agonizing death that will be dealt by any other predator. Given the choice...I'd take a double lung or heart heart shot from an arrow, long before I'd choose to be stalked and killed by coyotes...or any animal for that matter. There's nothing "humane" about killing...just MORE or LESS humane. We are predators...like it or not...we kill to eat.
