Do coyotes eat grass this time of year? Saw some scat that was almost all green grass on top of some old bear(maybe)scat. I am not positive it was coyote. I suppose it could have been bear or dog.
Thanks.

most often canines eat grass to make theirselfs vomit. i've seen dogs eat coarse grass and a little later throw it up. some of the finer grass they eat is passed through their systems. since they don't chew it very well i doubt they get much more than a cleansing effect either way from it.
Actually I have heard that domestic dogs and cats will eat grass when their digestive system is bothering them. Something about the grass calms it down. Not sure that a coyote or any other predator would be any different.
I usually see grass droppings every year while trapping. I think it is done to clean something out, but not sure. Sometimes you will see a dead worm. T.20
