About 15 years ago when there were still wild quail on a farm I hunted here in SE Tennessee, my Setter and I were standing on the edge of a fence row in an overgrown field. Two coyotes came out of the brush across the way from us and I watched them as they hunted as a pair thru the overgrown fields of that farm. It was interesting to watch, they were way out of range of my 20 gauge, but I wondered, and still do, if they aren't part of the reason the quail population is all but gone in my area.
