Funny we never had coyotes in any number around here for the first 30 years or so of my life.
They seemed to show up right around the time the pine nut eating fruitcakes did.
Maybe because the none gender questionable shot the f*cking things on sight up till then.
I still have people coming up to me and spouting off misinformation like "Coyotes are a protected species ".
Look at the video 1776 posted and you have the local "Expert " saying the coyote wasn't really trying to kill little fluffy. Bullshit it wasn't , five more seconds and that dog was done.
I've read parts of that book, it's crap. It's anti hunting nonsense period.
I've spent my whole life in the woods. No sale.
