Wild West
This wild frontier has been forged by the elements and built by monumental forces. Over millennia America's most iconic landscapes have been carved out; wind sculpted deserts, like Death Valley and the Grand Canyon; giant redwood forests fed by precious waters; and extreme coastlines - from the wave sculpted shores of the pacific to the warm sheltered sea of cortex. Nowhere in America is more extreme, more varied and more spectacular than the Wild West.

Welcome to BBC EARTH! The world is an amazing place full of stories, beauty and natural wonder. Here you'll find 50 years worth of astounding, entertaining, thought-provoking and educational natural history content. Dramatic, rare, and exclusive, nature doesn't get more exciting than this.

Coyotes are awesome. They're my favorite wild animal.

[rolthox]

I'm so proud of that coyote, good work little dude.

Apparently coyotes hunt geese. Yes, geese, those chaotic evil "peace was never an option" snake chickens. I wonder if I'll ever find a video of that.

He can catch a flying bird but can't catch a roadrunner?

"Duck down, roadrunner to go"

[ZaberAnsaryOfficial]

I'm coyote peterson, and I'm going to enter the grass zone to catch me some birds

[joohsay]

Can you imagine being a bird that needs a running start to catch flight. Lol

that was the first thing i noticed, the shinny coat, and it looked healthy. it looks different than the coyotes here in texas

[enderlynxwilloze]

Finally ‘! After five minutes, I found a coyote video without people killing them, ! 😁

[zeroafro]

But can the coyote successfully hunt the road runner though?

[robertschumann]

Coyotes have been hunting birds since I was a little kid. Not sure why this one doesn’t use giant slingshots or dynamite though. He’ll figure it out sooner or later.

My golf game sucks. Even coyotes are getting birdies.

[blackdogdancer]

Beautiful animal. Coyotes are strong survivors.

[rainbowrailroadcrossing]

I like their hustle. Very good territory defenders

[firefliesinthesky]

I guess Wile E. gave up on Road Runner and ate Daffy instead

[Luna-on-pawz-zp]

I’m a coyote theiran so this is something I would understand 😊

[jamesbest]

Oh those country club coyotes. Catch a bird, finish the back 9, and then head back to pay their annual dues.

[planescaped]

I have never seen a coyote that fat in the wild.

Every coyote I have ever seen is has been super scrawny by nature. Someone on the production team's been throwing him steaks. XD
