OT - Coyotes

Looks like the coyotes came up to the house and got 4 young cats last night. Guess it's time to get out the camo, distress call and .243. I don't like where this might head next.

Come on out to western NY when your done and work on some of ours. We've got plenty of foxes too. I've got a few ducks and geese along with a stray cat we adapted and I don't leave a thing out side after sun down. Everything goes in the barn and shut the door.

I ran off a pack of them a few nights ago. Woke me up from a sound sleep, sounded like they were right outside the house. Too dark to actually see them, so I just fired off a couple of rounds into the sky with the 12 gauge. Didn't hear a peep out of them for about a week after that, but now they are getting brave again.

They didn't mention the big fish hook, a chunk of meat, two foot of rope, and a study limb six foot off the ground.

them poor coyotes, if ppl keep this type of action up, coyotes will be extinct, and deep down nobody wants that.

We have the same problem here in SW Ontario. Have had at least 6 good barn cats disappear this year along with my domestic geese and ducks. If we get a decent amount of snow this winter it will be hammer time with my 243

Coyotes extinct??? HA! There's never been an animal that man has tried harder to wipe off the face of the earth- hunting, trapping, poisoning, and more. Heck, back in the '70's when coyote pelts were worth over 100 bucks apeice, people even hunted them from airplanes around here, not to mention snowmobiles, with hounds, etc etc...and yet, coyotes have not only survived but THRIVED. They're way too smart of an animal for us to ever wipe 'em all out, and they can adapt to pretty much anything humankind can throw at them.

I presume you are joking.... but if not, I suggest you do some online research. If Armageddon ever comes, the world will be populated by cockroaches and coyotes.

Big problem now here in northwestern N.C., thanks to Wildlife Dept. releasing many breeding pairs of coyote/wolf cross ( much larger animals than western coyote ) about 15 years ago. They would not admit the release then ( said coyotes were migrating in from Virginia or were escapes from private hunting preserves) but they do now. Wildlife officer says kill them any way you can. #&*% things kill a lot of our barn cats , got the neighbors house dog when let outside, tore up his outside dog so bad it died, also killed his chickens. We never found a dairy calf born in pasture one night. Last year one night we heard a baby deer bleating as it was being dragged by a coyote through the woods less than 75 feet from our house. Hear them howling/yipping night and day around here. See them frequently in broad daylight trotting across fields , not afraid of tractor. I've shot a few and deer hunters kill some each year too. Sad to say , but coyotes are probably here to stay. #&*% wild turkeys, too.
