we've had some coyotes getting pretty bold and not seeming very afraid. we had 2 in the field across the road. my wife was on the road hollering for a while and they didnt seem to mind. I walked up within about 100 yds from them and they didnt care until a 22-250 round hit one. the next day me and my boy were driving around in the ranger and came into a field and saw one standing there. I had time to grab my gun and take a shot before it ran off, unfortunately i only had my 22. This behavior is uncommon but I guess the bonus is im getting more shooting oportunities

On Hilton Head Island they have the folks pets firmly in their diet plan and a crapping in their flower beds. Years ago the tree huggers threw some big wrenches in the works to do anything they could against trapping as a whole and the town put out an ordinance to get those folks quiet. Now they ate (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman) and moaning about their pets being eaten and the town should do something about it. I just sit on the fence and shake my head and giggle. That bed they made themselves don't seem to be all that comfortable.

every day humans are not viewed as a predator , every day they sink closer to prey.

but isn't that what they all want is to be a victim.

They don't last long around here if they are dumb or curious.
Those are the dead ones.

A few years back one of the guys on here hooked me up with some folks running a therapeutic riding arena outside of San Marcos. They had coyotes willing to come to the edge of a covered arena and bark at special needs children who looked them in the eye. B/c it was a charity and not to far away I did the work for nuthin! I figured if I didn't one of these children would wander off and not be paying attention and the outcome would be the worst a man could imagine.

Remind them that they are a prey species every chance you get is my advice.

Get in a tractor with a cab and haybine some fields. They and fox, gulls and raptors will be working the windrows for voles. Once used to you when you go by you can almost count the whiskers on them.
