Yes, I agree completely.

Yes, the instinct to procreate is strongest.  Pyrs will leave the flocks to 
chase a coyote?  How about a wolf?  If that be the case, the managers of the 
flock need to insure that this does not happen.  A non heat female will not 
leave with the male chasing an in heat coyote, will she?  Will she, if in 
season, breed with a wolf or Coyote?
