Read in this months new FIELD AND STREAM, a study done shows coyote mortality at about 80% of fawn deaths...read another study about a year ago in another magazine that suggested 90% by coyotes..which is the biggest reason we kill them at every opportunity...plus its fun..

RIPP:

Was that study done in an area with other large predators?

Reason I ask is that as you know, we have yotes, bear, cougar and of course, wolves. It's a wonder that any fawns survive.

I find live babies all the time, I can't imagine it is very hard for predators to find them. Just yesterday my son found a turkey nest full of eggs.

A study in the Lochsa some years ago linked black bear to severe elk calf depredation and was instrumental in the increase to a 2-bear limit in some Units.
