I thought you said 2G was overloaded with coyotes.What do they eat in the winter that mountain lions couldn't kill?Do the coyotes also leave 2G in the winter?

dont know if they leave,i did not see as many this year ,as last..
friend sent me picture of 29 coyotes they got this year in a couple of days..he is in farm areas..he said coyotes are worst this year than ever..

i am hearing oposite here in wmu2g from trappers, they say less this year..

it may be do to OVERHARVEST OF DOE..coyotes, i think will go where deer are,thats not in wmu2g..

Not long ago you were complaining about seeing coyote tracks all over the place.They must be eating something.Why do they leave tracks and mountain lions don't?

I may have figured it out: We don't have mountain lions...we have Griffins!

maybe they do leave tracks
maybe they move out of the rugged areas in winter if food is better elsewhere
maybe do to weather, people are not in woods or on roads as much as in june/dec

again, i dont know but if there are only a FEW cougars here and they move around a lot,sighting could be seen here, cougar moves then seen somewhere else

i dont know but i know you will certainly have answer,NO COUGARS EXIST.

that douge, is where you are WRONG.sad you never saw COUGAR ,most i know that are hunters, have seen one..

You honestly believe that most hunters have seen a cougar?That's just plain funny.Let me get this strait,hunters say there's no deer in a WMU where thousands are proved to be killed every year.Yet,most see an animal that doesn't leave any sign what so ever.

It is sad that I've never seen an animal in which no credible evidence has ever been provided to prove it's existence.That really bums me out.

Yes, the illogical thinking is indeed sad.
