Yesterday I am working in the back yard and I hear this strange squeak. I look up and my 12 year old rescue dog has a jack rabbit (Black tail hare) in her mouth. It was still alive And dieing and I did not know that rabbits made a sound. Kali is a hunter and captures anything from lizards to birds and rabbits. She brings them to me as a present and drops them as soon as I tell her and then walks away like - OK, I did my job!
The bunny was fatally injured and soon died. I tossed it over the chain link fence as everything in the desert gets recycled in short order.
I little while later I hear Kali making her coyote bark. It is distinctive and she does not like coyotes. I see her charging at the fence where the coyote is charging toward the rabbit. They are both about the same distance from the rabbit and going full speed. I can just imagine what is going through the coyotes mind - That is my rabbit and you arent going to get it. The coyote tries to grab the rabbit on the run and misses. They can weigh up to 6 lbs. Oops. Makes a quick 180 and gets the rabbit the second time.
Of course the fence stops Kali, but I know she was sure that she ran that coyote off. :cool2:
