Coyote Behavior: Summer 1978

Coyote Behavior: Summer 1978 is a 1978 USDA/WWRC study-based film documenting research on coyote interactions with livestock, particularly sheep. Scientists conduct experiments using a chemical deterrent applied to the sheep to observe its effects on coyote behavior. While the coyotes initially appear inclined to attack, the chemical causes hesitation and retreat, suggesting its effectiveness as a non-lethal deterrent. The film provides an intriguing, though methodical, exploration of predator-prey dynamics and efforts to protect livestock without harming wildlife.
