One horse dead coyotes

Well congrats on the 71 Coy and on the 74 J and still being as active as ever. Pretty darned impressive in my book.

Many would wish they made it as far............

Hope I have more than 10 years left.

I am ok now , all the feeling has returned.
That is why I didn't do much hunting last fall and this past winter, didn't want an accidental discharge.
I also have a hard time walking any distance [pain] from bone on bone in knee, no cartilage.
All I need now is a new knee, the doctor says all that pain will disappear after the knee replacement surgery.

You need to set those people straight. Coyotes were not here first. They were never native to Ontario. They started showing up late 60's, early 70's - at least in my neck of the woods. Back then I hunted all over Niagara for fox with a black & tan cross bluetick hound. I averaged $120 per fox. With a high on one over $200. Fantastic money for a kid back then. One winter I got 27 fox. me, dog and 12 gauge #2 magnum. Working in the local abrasives company in induction furnaces I cleared $125/week for 40 hours of hard labor. Chasin foxes as you can see was lucrative. I hunted every day. I never never never even seen a coyote or a track until 1974 ish. That coyote was living in a pine hydro plantation. I chased it for about 2 weeks every day. I finally got it after it was starting to slow down after me hitting twice earlier. My 105lb hound finally caught it and had it bayed. Quite a battle until I showed up and shot it point blank. My hound was the toughest dog I have ever known. that coyote weighed 67 lbs on the bathroom scale.

anyway the point I always make is that these creatures are an INVASIVE SPECIES and never never inhabited our province. It's plain to see that our native wildlife never had to deal with them as a predator.

THEY ARE AN INVASIVE SPECIES! Make sure this point is made to all trying to protect them!
