[QUOTE="snake67, post: 1001162, member: 17764"] I have lived in the bush all my life. Got indoor plumbing when I was in my late teens. Made my first telephone call when I was 16 years old. I lived on moose and deer until my teens. I went to a one room school house for the first 8 grades. I bought my first car with more than 1000 muskrat pelts I caught on my trap line. I still heat the house 100% with wood. My place is a true Beverly Hillbillies homestead. You do not state where you live or what your age is - but without meaning to insult you - [u]you shoot those coyotes you are a bloody fool[/u]. I am betting you have neighbours close by and I am betting you have a paved road within at least a mile or so of your house. I am betting I know more about wild animals than most on this board. If the coyotes have not caused you grief by now, the chances are good that they will not ever cause you grief. You shoot them you make room for new ones to come in to that territory. Anyone gratutitously shooting coyotes does more harm than good. Most folks with dead calves in the yard are getting those losses from dogs. Yeah, your neighbours Beagle will team up to kill a calf before 90% of coyotes will. It is all a calories vs risk thing for the wild dogs. Lots of townie dogs will travel MILES to go pack up and hunt domestic animals - then go home to sleep. Best you leave them alone unless you know you have problems with those coyotes - then and only then - kill them all. Remember this - if you see them feeding on something it does not mean they killed it - never - ever forget that! Do not shoot - they get smart fast - snare and poison - gets them all in one night. Do not play the fools game that many here play - leave those wild dogs alone unless you TRULY know the harm they are doing - otherwise you might just be making room for some real bad ones! Watch out for that dammed Pookie dog - he is your true trouble maker not the wild dog. My best Bez [/QUOTE]
