Cheetah VS Jackal
An unfortunate jackal was confronted by an aggressive cheetah coalition and got smacked around. Cheetahs are rarely seen this aggressive against another predator. This is because cheetahs despise jackals the same way lions despise hyenas. These cheetahs were hunting a gazelle when a jackal botched their plans. The cats lost their focus and decided to chase the jackal. We can see the cheetahs chasing the jackal and I must say the jackal is much faster than I expected as it manages to escape the cheetahs.
A mother Cheetah made a kill and signaled her little ones to come and feed, but they had no peace while feeding because a few Black-backed Jackals kept on disturbing the family until they were left to take over the leftovers. A hyena which was not far from the eating point, took over from the jackals and ate the scraps. In this video, a cute cheetah cub shows a curious jackal that he’s not welcome, when the young feline chases the jackal away, in front of his mom, resting in the shade.
Wolf VS Coyote
This is the only interaction between a wolf and coyote that experts have observed during their study so far. This camera was near a carcass and the wolf seemed intent on keeping the coyote away from it. Clearly, the coyote was not too afraid as it kept returning after being chased away. Many have asked experts about their observations of wolf-coyote interactions, with many wondering if they have seen coyotes killed by wolves. The answer is “no"…they have yet to document it. It almost certainly happens from time to time in this area but appears to be rare. They have documented over 1,300 wolf-kills and not one has been a coyote.
They have documented 13 wolves that have been killed by other wolves during the same period. Notably, coyote densities are quite variable across this study area. In Voyageurs National Park, which is predominantly a mature boreal forest, they rarely get coyotes on their cameras. However, they see more coyotes on cameras south of the park where there is logging and agriculture. These are all activities that appear to alter the landscape in a way that is more favorable to coyotes. Some have asked whether wolves in this area are suppressing coyote populations by killing them.
Experts don’t really have any evidence that suggests this is the case, and they suspect much of the variability in the coyote population across this area is related to habitat. These wolves pursue two coyotes, and if they are caught, they are toast. Coyotes are no match for a single wolf, let alone a pack of wolves. Once the coyotes are caught, they are eliminated and eaten. The other coyote flees for her life, and when she knows she is no longer in danger, she howls, knowing full well that she has lost her partner. A pack of wolves in Yellowstone Park chases four coyotes off an elk carcass, bypassing a fox that was in the forest along the way, as the animal is awaiting its turn to eat.
