There is no such thing as a good coyote only dead ones in my opinion... Up here they kill a lot of deer fawns as well as grown deer. Most of the grown deer are killed during our winter months when they are in the deer yards.. One year they put 23 deer out of a yard onto the ice.. The wardens and our biologists estimate that with the pregnant does it was a total of 54 deer lost from this encounter.. I would shoot a coyote on site.. It is better to shoot the coyote knowing that you stopped one from killing deer and if it is a female all the better..
