Coyotes - Page 2

Not sure if they're still doing it. But where my mom lives in N. central MS. there was a 25.00 bounty on them.

There used to be a $5 bounty for each pair of coyote ears taken in Kansas. Wasn't worth the trouble for many hunters so they just hung the coyotes up on fence posts near an interection. You might see 5-10 coyotes hanging there sometimes.

Hell I'd cut those ears off of those 'yotes. That's $25 - $50 - good ammo money.

http://www.api4animals.org/1260.htm tells about bounties.

Met a fellow at the range today who was shooting a AR 50. .50 BMG and his words were (and I quote) "Shot a Cay-yote with her t'other day, an' this gun just plumb wore him out."

Well, I kind of thought as much. If he was in Kansas he could probably have got a nickel for bounty.

There used to be a premium on yote pelts back in the early to mid 70s but that seemed to have died out.

The yotes we see up here in central Arizona seem to look not that healthy. Not sickly but not healthy either....kinda on the scrounge side.

Knowing their reputation for small game and domestic animal killers here I won't hesitate to take one off the count if I get the chance and I will leave it....I don't care.

My wife's family make a living and eat lamb/sheep and without them things would be a lot tougher. They are beginning to have yote problems and some have, in packs, even run down small colts and other dogs.

So, as a nuisance predator and varmit I don't see the need to have any remorse whittling down the population when the need arises.
