Too many coyotes

pitw · January 07, 2009, 06:41:06 AM

I keep telling guy's we have too many coyotes and I certainly proved it yesterday. I went out the other day and set 9 snares and checked them yesterday and had 6 1/5 coyotes in them. A porcupine had pulled nuber 8 down and the ninth was under a foot of snow.

The head was only at the set because of the snare. That one was 30 yd's from the dead box on a feedlot where I was asked to get rid of some. Guess all his buddies wanted a warm meal instead of out of the frozen aisle. Gotta go back there tomorrow and set about 20 snares as there are probably that many coyotes around.

I'm in a state of bliss. Actually cathryn I don't live in a state I live in a province named Alberta.

Alberta must be an Indian word meaning, "there's coyotes everywhere".

That's about one and four fifths fewer coyotes than I've seen in a year in Kentucky.

You're a lucky man Barry.

Too many coyotes. That's a nice problem to have.

I drive 100 miles one way to hunt.

Great pics, by the way.
