I heard about the legs out of the den picture and thought it was what they did. If it exists I would love to see it.
i wish i remembered his name, he was from lock haven,pa. and is one of BASS PROS TOP HUNTERS on that redhead thing.

i saw picture and it was in lock haven express with his comments on what he found.

Bob Foulkrod is from somewhere in PA. Is that the name you're looking for?

I have a friend who knows him. I'll ask if he knows anything about this photo.

I do know that yotes aren't known for bringing their kills to the den

i would guess i read that article about 5 years ago and i remember, i believe a picture he had too with it.

what stuck in my mind was that he said he was from lock haven,pa and member of that REDHEAD group at bass pro.

You can't even assume a predator actually killed the fawns.They could have easily died of natural causes.Read the fawn study journal in it's entirety and see how many fawns were taken backto a den.None were.Coyotes don't do that.

Coyotes kill deer but they have a much larger effect in areas of poor habitat and for a limited amount of time.Someone would have to prove to me that we have a rapidly expanding coyopte population.I'm willing to bet in these parts we have less today than we did 10 years ago.Coyotes are very susceptible to to a variety of canine diseases and have a very have mortality rate.


Dag gone Doug.I wish I had a way to prove to ya that our population of coyotes increased in the last ten years.If we made a bet that would be easy money.I can't show you what was there 10 years ago but I sure can show ya what is there today.
Little story,I was hunting away from camp the last weekend and came upon a buck head.Illegal.I kept walking and came across a highway of yote tracks.Looked more like a well worn deer trail.Then I came up on the deer that head belonged to.I assume some idiot shot an illegal buck and left him lay.About the only thing left was the hooves and bones.The yote tracks told the story.
They are there in numbers.The sign and vocals show us a big increase within the last ten years.

big gang of my friends drove the GREENLICK area in kettle creek.

they told me they sawlots of coyote tracks.

they are on all the trails here in my hunting area do to heavy snow we had in last month in clinton county.

i saw 4 in 1 group ,male was hunting away from mother and 2 cubs.

i had my muzzleloader or 1 of them would have been history.

then that mother that called to others walking out path in dark.

do to lack of deer , i excite myself with things like that.

after season is over i will be putting out my trailcam and maybe get some picks of things.

i still have picture of coyotes attacking doe and her fawn but there is 8 second lapse in picture, it shows the does ears go up ,then 8 seconds later, 2 coyotes in spot on camera.

funny, i have fox on camera under legs of deer,i have rabbits, racoons,possums, squirreals,birds.

but when COYOTE comes, deer leave, never a coyote under the legs of deer.

Cornelius,two or threeyears ago we got a heavy snow squall on the first saturday of the MOSQUITO CREEK HUNT.After hunting one spot in the morning with no luck,we checked out an area that we knew had yotes inthe past few weeks.There were no tracks in the fresh snow.I went back the next morning.Walked the same logging roads and instantlly found tracks.I also found a fresh deaddoe that wasn't there the daybefore.Coyote tracks were all over it so I'll assume that was a coyote kill.The only one I ever ran into.Coyotes no doubt take some fawns but it's more of an issue in poor habitat.I've watched coyotes on several occassion enter a field with deer in it and the mature deer hardly paid them any attention.That isn't to say,when the planets all align properly,some yotes won't take a mature deer/I'm sure it happens on occassion.It realy doesn't matter to me.I like having them around.

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.
