I can speak from experience I have had two brother roosters attempt to defend my flock from two coyotes they got one rooster before I could scare them off but the Roos were definitely going after the coyotes giving the hens time to runIf roosters of different breeds are exhibiting the behavior, are they implying the condition is somehow vectored/ promoted by a pathogen?
I question outright the assertion about the three roosters taking on a predator and think it is false. If balance of information is of similar quality and / or from similar source then all is suspect. I have been into poultry for a long-time with a breed known for capabilities when aggressive and accounts given above are outside my experience. I will also pit my level / quantity of experience against the authors when it comes to rooster behaviors.
