Coyote?

[cobb]

I know this is blurry and coyotes are nothing new in my valley, but his is the first that I have on my trail camera. Being the first, that may be a good thing since I get a hundred deer or so every year.

So I did crop the picture because the coyote was off to the edge and on the edge of the camera's range, so it is blurred. So I think a coyote because of the color pattern and the black tipped tail.

Yep, that's a Yote..............

So how do we get rid of him/her?

I've always been told that you need the right tools for any job. I'd think if you got yourself a good hammar, that ought to do it.

Fixed for ya!

No, I think Stradawhovious had it right but just didn't punctuate it correctly, I need the hammAR.

Last one we encountered at our place had a run in with a 220 Swift.... The Swift came out the winner...

FWIW. Within the last month I spotted a coyote while out walking the dog. I have also confirmed with two other dog-walkers, who have seen it. This is in the heart of Roseville! I am not sure the 220 solution would be entirely apporpriate!

"Appropriate", yes. "Legal", no.

I saw a nice sized one out here in Maple Grove two weeks ago, just a bit after dusk. Nice big, bushy tail.

These critters are literally everywhere that there are people in North America. I saw one last year running down the street in downtown San Francisco. They seem to adapt to civilization pretty well.

They are saying wolves and coyotes are taking there toll on big game animals numbers out West. All the environmentalist think they are cute, majestic, furry creatures that need only love. When what they really need is thinning.

Thinning who...........the environmentalist or the wolves and coyotes................

big difference between idiot treehuggers and people who get pissed off at wanton waste of the goods given to us to manage.

Up north there are WAY too many wolves, they need to be hunted hard. they are in the mississippi gorge between MSP and eagan. They are all the way down to past Rochester.. I spent one morning on the 17th Floor of Mayo watching a small pack chase a deer across a field and orchard to the east of DT rochester.

Managing the woods for hunting, means keeping predator levels just slightly about critical stage, or else opening season on them other wise, it will crash the deer population, and they will wipe out what is left of the moose population.
