- Abstract
Coyotes (Cants latrans) are widely known to be predators of Wild Turkeys (Meleagrts gallopauo sspp.). We describe two observations of single Coyotes coming within 10 m of feeding Wild Turkey flocks without attempting to predate them in Stevens County, Kansas. We relate these observations to Coyote predation on turkeys and mobbing behavior.
