The video shows frightened coyotes running for their lives from dogs, who often catch and kill them. The dog hunters also hold contests where they judge the dogs’ performance and offer cash prizes. Animal Justice says that this practice is illegal in every other province and most US states, and that it causes immense suffering and death for the animals. | The video shows frightened coyotes running for their lives from dogs, who often catch and kill them.
