Default RE: coyote hunter problems

I know how you feel, we have the same problem around here too. But one difference is, more often than not, they are actually running deer with their dogs, but thats illegal here, so they have coyote dogs, and they are hunting "coyotes" when they are actually running deer. Most around here are too lazy to tresspass, they wait for the deer or whatever to cross the road and shoot them then. Makes me sick, usually starts about august, and is still going on now.
Are they to lazy?, not really some will wait for the dogs to return so they do not have the problems mentioned above. When the dogs are on a chase they do not know of any " no tresspassing signs ". The ones running the dogs do so they sit and wait for them to come out. They have radios here to help keep track of there dogs as coyotes do not tree. They also are equiped with 2 way radios and or cell phones so if tresspassing is needed they can make contact with 1 the owner/s or 2local authorities. Also most coyote running here is done outside of deer season. ( we only have a short season) However bear dogs run during our archery season for 2 weeks and the deer will move around and that does not mean they are chasing the deer because of it. Mostly here coyotes are run with dogs during the winter months.
