Title: coyote movement in the rain?

do they move as normal in the rain? Trying to get a night hunt together but there is alot of rain in our forecast. Do they move as normal or would it be a waste of time to go out.

p.s. Not hard rain, just yucky wintry crap.

thanks

They gotta eat to keep their metabolism up. Just remember that their sense of smell is increased by a fine misting rain and they can hunt much more efficiently.

The only thing I know of that will keep them from moving around is a heavy storm. But they will be moving just as soon as it starts to let up. Jimmie

Coyotes are like most other critters that live on land, they don't like a heavy rain or alot of snow or wind, they tend to hide when it gets bad, just like us. The best coyote hunters think like coyotes....sometimes so much so they start to looking like em too. :biggrin:
