Seems like everything eats them around here. Little birds. Big birds. Coyotes. Badgers. Usually, within a week or two, there is nothing but some hair left on the ground. Occasionally, if they have been skinned, little birds get it all before other critters have a chance and a full skeleton is left. The big birds and the coyotes carry off the bigger pieces and bones and leave nothing but some hair behind. I've seen badgers drag them off whole and bury them too.
This one was about two weeks, little birds got it all.
I once filled the cab of this truck with 14 dead coyotes. Came back two weeks later and there wasn't any sign of them in the cab. And not much sign on the ground around it. Just some hair and small bones here and there. But there was more fresh coyote crap on the ground in the area around that truck than I have ever seen in one spot before.
