Video: Hunter Befriends Coyote Pup

Usually, the last thing a hunter wants to run into in the wild is a coyote—unless they were specifically looking for one. These temperamental and unpredictable animals are widely viewed as a nuisance, dangerous, and can ruin hunts with just their mere presence. They even attack your turkey decoys, and they’re sometimes even bold enough to try and sink their teeth in your hunting dog as well.

Yet for all those points, hunters still find themselves helping these animals out when they’re down. After all, even coyotes are cute as pups, and this hunter apparently found an orphaned coyote out in the middle of nowhere. They decided to bond a bit by howling in unison.

“So….my buddy finds an ‘orphaned’ coyote pup…..and then this amazingly happens!” wrote Tyler Goodale, who posted the video to Facebook.

You can watch the magic happen below.
