I'm not a varmit hunter so bear with me. Last night well after dark I took the dog outside to do her business and looked out in the yard and seen a red fox just hauling the mail across my yard. A half second later I seen a yote hot on the foxes tail. Appeared that the fox was slightly faster than the yote but they went thru the yard and down into a heavily wooded area.
I backtracked where they had come from and found that they BOTH had crossed an open field that is approx 250 yards across a road then into my yard. I then tracked them a little way out of my yard till BOTH sets of tracks crossed the river which is about 2 feet deep in that area. I'm unsure of the outcome of the chase.
I know yotes hate fox but is what I seen an unusual occurrence? Just seemed an awful long way for the yote to be chasing a fox........
