Show some respect for the animal that is just doing what it has done for hundreds of years. Talk like that really does make hunters look like disrespectful hoodlums.

I hate coyotes too, I hate everything about them, but they are still a living creature and deserve to be put down in a way with as little stress and suffering as possible.

Try baiting if legal where you live i know it's not legal here where i live

very well said.... I dont like coyotes any more than the next guy, but I believe anything I kill should be done cleanly and humanely....

I very much agree with you. I only shot them if I’m in an area where they need to be culled. For example, at a land owner requests or areas where quail or turkeys inhabit. The vast majority of their diet consists of mice and rabbits anyway. Everything I’ve read says that it’s a very rare occasion they get to take a deer fawn. I respect them for their tenacity. I would never want their death to be any more painful then necessary.

I know I'm beating a dead horse here, but please add me to the list of what others have said about treating all animals with respect.

PS, Max amount of suffering is NOT what theydeserve.
Sounds like a case can be made for immaturity, lack of respect and arrogance. [:'(]

Three things I would never wanted to be associated with as a hunter.

God knows if someone had posted they gutshot a deer and it was lost, you guys saying to shoot the coyotes in the gut would tear him a new one about how he doesnt deserve to be a hunter and blah blah blah. Are you much better?

I am just glad to see everyone ragging on those guys that think you should torture the yotes just for trying to get something to eat. But really I would try the calling method when you get a chance. doing that every couple days or so should start you in the right direction.

Anyone need coyotes thinned out can PM me with a phone #. Chances are, in Wisconsin, Ill do it for hunting priv. Outside the state I gotta charge you, sorry.

Are you for real? what you said was completely irrelevent


My advice is to find a skilled trapper in your area. Ask for recomendations. They will do it for no charge if they can keep the pelts, and you will have no problem in no time. I would volunteer but am not from the area. The same advice goes for a GOOD preditor caller.

Youmay shoot a couple young ones with calls or bait,however no offence but if you do not know what you are doing you will just get oneor two and educate the rest. They are SMART animals and learn what not to do very fast. Get someone who knowsthier stuff for preditors (and may be willing to teach you) and the problem will be gone.
