I dont think that mangy yote was ever worried about the quick kill as he was eating a new born calf while it was still alive. I show respect to animals when I can but come on a coyote?
Wholly Molly!!!! What's the difference between a coyote, deer, elk, moose, duck, goose or any other animal? As far as I know, it does exactly what it was put on this earth for... eating, crapping and making more coyotes. So, you're questioning a coyote's ethics because it doesn't have the intelligence to make quick, clean and ethical kills in order to survive. Because it's not a "glamorous" animal, it should be given less respect? As a responsible and educated sportsman, I really hope that you were kidding with your above statement.
