Rich,I've hunted all over this year and I've only seen one coyote track in the snow.Sign is way down for me.There absolutely,positively has not been an explosion in the coyote population over the last 10 years,at least not around here.
You might better take a looksee at the Predator forum over there on the PGC suckarse messegeboard, because the predator hunters over there seem to all be saying the coyote population is up.
