[QUOTE="Craig-TX, post: 58009, member: 39"] Oh cattle_gal please don’t get started characterizing me that way. Before you shoot your mouth off you should either take the trouble to read my record here on predators or keep your mouth shut. My record on predators and their so-called rights speaks for itself. It's there for the looking if you want to read it. Look at the archives. I’ll stand by my remark. They don’t, certainly not with cattle which is the subject of this thread. Maybe you have a different kind of coyote there. Around here they are wild enough that they’re not going to waste energy on something like that. And they don’t. This is a cattle board and the question was about calves. Further, I stand by my remark when it comes to sheep. Dogs are much worse than wild predators when it comes to sport-killing sheep. Are you saying they go after the healthy, strong and young cattle? Well power to you! I’ve been fighting the predators themselves for a lot longer than that. Let me tell you they don’t down here in Texas. Well, there’s another difference between you and the way it works down here. We shoot anyway. What do you want the coyote to do, stop and strike a pose for you while you brace good and draw a bead? They were bad before. But if you’ve only been at it for ten years you can’t remember. No they don’t. Not coyotes. They don’t kill their prey that way. If you’re taking about wolves, I’m not experienced and can’t comment. Which is why I'm not shooting my mouth off about them. Not by coyotes. Coyotes go after the young. And contrary to what you say, the do go after the sick, weak and old. They don’t have enough butt on them to take down a yearling or a grown cow/bull. Unless you’re growing some mighty big coyotes up there. Down here a coyote probably averages 30# and a 50# coyote would be a trophy. Get off you high horse cattle gal. You’re preaching to the choir. And it ain’t no ignorant choir. BTW, exactly how do you go about enhancing a mother cow's instincts? I looked. Where are all the calves that were killed for sport? And how do you know it was coyotes?
