Default RE: Coyotes and Baitpiles?

A freezer with 700 lbs of various meat was purposely unplugged by someone unknown. All of the meat was tossed into a trash pit that was within a half mile of where I had seen coyotes. After a month of checking the pit looking for signs of coyotes, not one package had been ripped open enough to make me think that a coyote had been there. It looked more like birds had pecked through it. After two weeks it stunk so bad in that area that I had to plug my nose to walk up there and check.

Back in Dec., Jan., and Feb. we had a lot of snow storms. Many cows were dying. One farm/ranch that I hunt piled all of the deads in one spot. I went out on three separate weekends to look for coyote signs near the deads. Nothing went close to them, but 50 yards in almost every direction was coyote tracks.

They are strange animals and I am by no means a skilled coyote killer. Still trying to figure them out myself.
