Perhaps, the word "educated" is loosly used when discussing animals/coyote's. It is in my mind, as I often use generalizations.
Doubtfull, to me if I will ever know the truth/reason's of why the coyotes in my area. Don't just charge in & jump on my lap. Let alone a pr or a pack coming close. But I do have my opinions/observations, as to why not. But, I can hardly call that the "truth"
I estimated awhile back, I've seen over 1000 coyotes, give or take. Some out of that number, I seen repeatidly, year after yr.
Only ever seen 2-coyote's, while driving a gravel spotting for coyote. Those 2 coyote's were close to the gravel I was on. They both[seperate hunts, different Winter's], sat down on their haunch's & just stared @ me for abit[70yrds out or so]. I sat & stared back, admiring them. One looked to be a yearling, while the other was a large mature coyote.
These 2 were not the "norm" in my area. But very interesting to watch their behavior, regardless.
