Title: Four Paws captures entire litter of coyote pups
Post by: possumal on April 21, 2013, 03:28:28 PM
Four Paws (aka Possumal Jr.) responded to a help call from a farmer this a.m., and ended up capturing an entire litter of coyote pups, with their eyes still shut.  There were 5 males and 2 females, with one of the females with beautiful markings, 4 white paws and a white tip on her tail.  There may have been one more pup, but the mother coyote drug it further back in the den. Here is the picture:

Those are way cool. I have raised several coyotes through the years and it is definitely a labor of love and extremely time consuming.
Now it is not legal here in Alabama. The last coyote I raised (Jack) was a nightmare from Game and fish. 250.00 a year permit. Constant checking from them and a forever to do list on expanding pen. It was just too much and I decided to let Jack go with their permission at 1 year of age.

What the heck does one do with a tote full of coyote pups still coated in Amniotic fluid??

Removed at request of farm owner to be euthanized, stuffed, & mounted with mother. He's been losing the calves so I guess he's earned it. Interesting to say the least. Should make a great mount
