but in my experience coyotes will take their prey away and eat them without leaving much, if anything, Much like a dog will take a bone away to someplace safe and then chew on it. Most people that live in areas where coyotes frequent will see remains and assume the culprit is a coyote. More often than not its a bird of prey that doesn't care if anyone is near and will generally leave parts of the victim it doesn't want. Here's an interesting article on owls who attack cats at night.
