pics of coyotes?

[Mossy Bloke]

Anyone have a pic of a coyote you've shot? I live in SE GA and apparently there are a good number of them out here but I have yet to see one.

What's the hide like on one? Is it something that'd be worth getting tanned? or is it more like shooting a big dog?

 

[Mr. Chitlin]

My Bushy Varminter likes to sneak up on them when they are sleeping...

 

[Mossy Bloke]

Man...

...that is sweet! I've just got to get me a long range varmit rifle!

Well, that sorta depends on what you shoot 'im with.
Suggest somethin a little smaller than a 338 WM!

Or a 25-06.

Absolutely, if you don't mind skinning the flea bitten things. Around here, furs are prime from Thanksgiving until maybe late February. There used to be a pretty good market for the skins, $25-$60 if I recall correctly. Lately the skins haven't been worth much.

Sorry, only pictures I have are of live ones....these were cruising by my deer stand during bow season.

Rembrandt,
That is awesome! Great pix! The guy that lets me hunt his farm wants me to shoot em if I see em.

' dem is some healthier lookin' critters than we have in these parts ...

I was thinking the same thing. Why, look at the little Big Bend desert yodel dawg that I watched Art pop with his '06 one morning. (BTW, Art's not a huge oversize like me-- that's a Toyota pickup tailgate by his left elbow.)

Here's Mine!

Here's mine. S&W Mod. 64 using 158gr. JFP

I was sitting with my bad to a Hay stack and he can waltz'n by under 20 yards.

Shot this ole dog at about 110 yards with a 180gr nosler PT HE from my kimber 84M stainless .308 win.

Darndest thing...

I was up on a little knoll glassing for deer when an acute case of ADD kicked in. So pulled out my yoddle whistle and gave her a blow.

This old grizzled male stood up from behind a little snow drift at the base of my knoll and did the I'm a tired dog stretch just before meeting Mr. Nosler...

The coyote had been asleep behind one of these little snow drifts not 110 ***** away and my call woke him up!!! That was a first for me especially in wide open country like this.

This is a pretty typical eastern Co plains coyote with an early winter coat. He was a fairly large male.

I cannot remember the details, but it's one of the many I've taken.

A friend told me of one taken in a trap recently in WVA.It weighed in at 90 lbs , may be a record for the state.

 

[Ol' Badger]

Ok

I suffer from coyote envy now! Mine looks like the reject of the bunch.

 

[Mr. Chitlin]

Ain't no coyote rejects!!

 

[H&Hhunter]

It weighed in at 90 lbs , may be a record for the state.

mete,


Remind me not to be cute, little, fuzy, lamb in your part of the world.

 

[Dan the Man]

Here is a coyote we killed while antelope hunting in Wyoming. Sorry there isn't anything to compare its size; I would consider it an average coyote--nowhere near 90 pounds (!!!).
