[Steve_Miller]

Ever see any Tom? Many have that distinctive coyote "swirl"

What DQ flavor of the day was this?

I'm a hunter, but there are very few animals that I just blast away at. Deer, turkey, squirrel, etc I'll hunt in season when I have time. Coyotes I'll shoot on sight. Raccoons I see around the house in the day are almost always rabid need shooting, mostly for safety reasons. In TX, wild hogs are big pests and are always shoot on sight. That said, I have yet to see a coyote around me, though I see there signs and occasionally hear them. Up north in the UP, porcupines are pests and are shot on sight too. Although still rare up there, I always carry something in a hefty caliber when I'm out because wolves and bears are starting to reappear. I learned that lesson when in TX I kicked up a mountain lion while bird hunting, when I saw that and realized I only had birdshot, I was a little nervous. Luckily he wasn't interested in me or the dogs.

Blast away?... You outta go after some of those pesky ISIS critters, might be more of a level playing field.

I second the notion. And leave harmless critters alone.

In PA there is no closed season on coyotes and they can be hunted on Sundays.

This thread caught my eye based on having been a coyote hunter & trapper years back when I lived in my native KS. i'm old enough to remeber when $X$ PU's were just coming around and those coyote hunters had a bad rep with any farmer as those guys liked to disregard fences when in pursuit of coyotes. Deer season there started there in KS around late 1960's, thereabouts and prior the coyote was one of the few larger animals to draw a bullet.
i had a niegbor there that kept a 30-06 on tractors and he shot some every winter that went into my fur sale pile. They are smart fellers and to trap them you have to do it all right or a waste of time! As for hunting them, it's typically a long distance shot with a few exceptions-extremely cold weather when they're hard up for food or when they're attracted to a domestic food source(my chickens or your dog) or maybe the coyote is sickly.
My best hunting was always when the temp was around zero deg's out.
As for them eating humans-thats a new one on me! Not saying it didn't happen but I collected quite a few $2 bounties and sold pelts (brought around $15-20 back in 1960's) before PETA/fashion effect lowered prices and also I got married-trapping isn't a great sideline as for time allocation when married.
Here in E KY they started showing up ~10-15 years ago and interbreed with dogs like other areas. I bought my 75 acres in 1978 here & have never seen, nor heard one on/near my place. My neighbor claims he sees them all the time & hears them-he says he's seen them pulling up sweet corn and dragging it off to side of field then eating it there. seems funny to me that he hears/sees them & we don't. there are other critters all over our place and we see them everyday out the LR windows-coyotes eat critters-stands to reason we'd at least hear them? I heard them-almost-every night in KS, depending on season and weather that evening.
Eating coyotes? :licking::licking::licking:You'd have to be "nuts" IMO!!! Skunks, buzzards and other eaters of dead animals, AKA carrion are not on my menu, ever...:thumbdown:

BTW, What did Daedong have in mind when they named these machines? Does Kioti mean something in Korea, or is it an acronym?
Gonna snow here Thursday a.m.-does sit ever stop?

Coyote can and do take down full grown white tailed deer, it is not at all uncommon up here, there are examples to be found online showing exactly how they do it and they do it easily. As far as letting you dog get around coyotes I wouldn't suggest or not only for the safety of the dog but also coyotes are major carriers of mange, you don't want your dog getting that stuff, in highly populated areas mange can be rampant in coyotes

Yeah, my dog got mange just chasing a Red Fox. Made the dog miserable with several trips to the Vet. to finally get rid of it...Mike.

Silly hunters... THIS is a Coyote-Kioti sign:



Hm, seems to apply to murph's comment in post# 3, also:

Yea but you killed it. Now you have to mount his head on the front of your Kioti..
