Барсук и койот - совместная охота

A rarely seen natural event... a Badger and a Coyote cooperatively hunting Black-tailed Prairie Dogs (Teddy Roosevelt National Park, North Dakota, October). The Coyote benefits by possibly getting a Prairie Dog that the Badger scares out of a burrow, and the Badger benefits by possibly snatching a Prairie Dog that the Coyote scares back down a burrow. I had never heard of this when my friend Ryan and I witnessed it. But a quick search on Google revealed many American legends, scientific papers, other videos, of this cooperatively hunting “odd couple.“
