Eager Coyote Encourages Slow Moving Badger Into Culvert So They Can Cross Under Highway Together
A night vision camera for Pathways for Wildlife and Peninsula Open Space Trust (POST) captured the very amusing sight of an eager coyote excitedly encouraging a much slower-moving badger into a culvert underneath a busy California highway so that they could both cross to the other side together.
According to videographer Russ McSpadden, the two species often hunt together.
