THIS is the courageous moment a heroic puppy battles a pack of savage coyotes for nearly an hour to defend its local street.
The neck-and-neck dog fight was captured on home security footage – and showed five bloodthirsty animals take on the one-year-old stray.

The epic battle took place earlier this month in the early morning hours in Brea, California.
Incredible footage shows the hostile pack of sinister coyotes surround the floppy-eared dog.
They take nips at its heels, sides and face, before the fearless pup starts to fend off the attacks.
The scheming coyotes back off slightly when the lionhearted dog starts to bark and bite back.
Duke employs a range of techniques as he growls, bobs and swivels in response to the group assault.
Displaying his primal instincts, the pup eventually stands with his back against shrubs to prevent any more flank attacks.

They then start to back off when they realise it is not the best idea to get within biting distance of their larger counterpart.
The homeowners who caught the warring factions on camera only saw the standoff when they woke up and scared the whole gang off, according to KTLA.
Homeowner Melissa Shatynski told the outlet: “He knew how to protect himself, and fight them off and kind of back into a corner against that little area there.”
She added: “He was able to fight them off unbelievably.”
Two days after the taking on the formidable foes, the brave stray pup was seen still wandering the neighbourhood alone.
This compelled Shatynski to call Orange County Animal Care to get him taken to a shelter.
Duke was up for adoption as of Thursday morning, but online records show he may already have found a new home.
His description wrote: “Duke is a shy but friendly boy who loves hanging out with other dogs.
“Once he warms up, he enjoys doing zoomies, playing in the pool, and engaging with his handlers.”
Cute footage posted by Orange County Animal Care showed Duke jumping around in a small pool and happily roughhousing with another dog.
They excluded footage of the movie-like battle between courageous Duke and the five coyotes.
Wildlife experts said that it is currently breeding season for coyotes – which means adults can become more aggressive while finding food for their young pups.
This food can reportedly include dogs.
