The horses broke out of the fence for a reason, they don't just decide to do it. The stallion likely kicked a hole in the fence so the mare and he could escape. He was likely injuries trying to protect the mare who would have been less mobile because of the foal she was carrying. I have seen alpacas fight and they have foot work that would make Fred Astaire look like he had three left feet. House dogs are not going to take one down without a high number of them being killed/injuries by the alpaca.
I have some experience fighting with coyote, multiple bites to my hands, arms and the lose of part of my left thumb. All by a coyote that had a bullet through it's chest and lungs.
I am going find out exactly where this happened..........if someone knows PM me...........I live about 20 miles from fort erieQuote:

Horse meat is good eating?
These were miniature horses , easy picking for a few coyotes ;
The designation of miniature horse is determined by the height of the animal, which, depending on the particular breed registry involved, is usually less than 34–38 inches (86–97 cm) as measured at the last hairs of the mane, which are found at the withers.
They are not much taller than a coyote.
I have always told people that if there is fencing, a coyote can kill an elephant. Once they run him thru or into a fence and break a leg or immobilize him, they will eat him alive. They don't have to do the Wild Kingdom takedown/back of the neck thing like many of the public think.
Likely what happened in this case. Horses were run into/thru a fence injuring them and taking away their ability to maneuver. It was church after that.
I see a lot of alpaca "protectors" here in Canada, not so much in the States. Don't believe the publicity, they will kill and eat an alpaca as fast as a they will a young steer.
Sad event for sure and that stud doesn't look long for this world.
I hope the hunters don't stop until they are exterminated from around there.
Only about a billion more horses to go in Ontario...
