[QUOTE="backyardtndeer, post: 4982867, member: 16465"] These yotes here run the deer trails heavy this time of year. Think a lot depends on if they pass and don't chase and if they chase deer down in packs. Have seen several interactions over the years with deer and yotes in a field at the same time. If they run off and a single yote scares a deer away without giving a lengthy chase, the deer are not going far, but if yotes or even feral dogs get after them in a pack of 3 or more and run them, they may avoid the area if they know the dogs are around. I have seen luls in camera activity for 24 to 48 hours with upticks in yote activity, but then also seen does and yotes in same frames on camera and within just hours deer were right back. Will never forget one morning watching a doe that had obviously been running a long time that had given a domestic dog the slip. She stopped right behind my ladder stand, stand is on a little ridge. She had circled around in a drain that had slow running water. She was behind me, the dog in front. The dog kept circling around trying to pick up her scent before ending up going back the same direction it came from. I had heard several dogs barking before the dog came in. Doe just hung tight for a good while and eventually walked away. I am sure under the right circumstances dogs can run deer for long distances, and in others deer can slip away and not go so far. One of the craziest interactions I ever saw was watching a doe in the late spring come up a hill in my view just a few yards from a yote that was watching her. She kept coming back, the yote would not leave. Went on for probably 5 minutes. I think she had a fawn nearby and was trying to lead the yote away. [/QUOTE]
