Another weird raven thing, is their relationship with coyotes. If you see a deer or elk freshly road-killed, there'll soon be a 'feast of ravens' feeding off its nice, soft, juicy meat. If a coyote comes along, and also gets schmucked by a vehicle, the ravens immediately switch over to that tough, stinky coyote, and just go nuts! Jumping up and down, bouncing and cawing excitedly, like a kid on Red Bull!

I don't know what it is that excites a raven on a dead coyote that way. It's very macabre.
