My husband and I were stalked by a doe too while out walking in the woods. We kept hearing a strange sound parallel to the trail, but it's a sound neither one of us had heard before. We stopped to take a closer look into the brush and saw her - that little lady was SERIOUS. Fortunately for us, we weren't headed towards her baby. As soon as we stepped out of her territory, she left us alone.

We have coyotes here in town now, and their numbers have grown. A friend of mine has a German Shepherd. The other day he noticed a pack of 5 coyotes staring hungrily through the window at his dog. His dog is big, smart and fast, but she wouldn't stand a chance if she decided to go out to defend her territory against those coyotes. Their increased viciousness around here is not really their fault. Like people, animals get hungry and need food too.
Thanks for this!
