[QUOTE="Joy of Texas, post: 601929, member: 7319"] Yes,we have seen them take down a couple of day old calf. I was fortunate to have a friend of mine alert us to yotes being on the pasture. He said he saw them chasing a new born calf. Sure enough they were. My brother went with me one morning and they were after a calf. He shot 3 of them. There was 7 or 8 of them together that morning. The calf turned out ok. It had a few bite marks on him. So do not be fooled that yotes won't attack and kill a calf. I know a few years ago we lost a couple of cows calving. The yotes attack when the cows were down birthing. Killed the calf and ate the back end of the cow. We also had a 8-10 month old heifer that was in a pen. This guy wrote out a check for her,but couldn't take her for a couple of weeks. I showed up to feed her one morning and half of back end was eaten. I first thought mountain lion. But I could see where her feet and legs were all chewed up. So I know it was some kind of dogs or yotes. We shoot any and all yotes we see. Speaking of hogs. Since we have all of those wild hogs taking over our pasture. we haven't seen any yotes. I do have one Bobcat that shows up ever so often. [/QUOTE]
