Still More on Coyotes

[woodmort]

It seems as though there is a big thing in the newspapers this month on coyotes--this is the third article within a couple of weeks, two in the Binghamton paper. For those of you wanting to eradicate them, read the third page of this one. http://www.pressconnects.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=201010150386

Interesting article, and it's true, they are here to stay. Last night, I was up most of the night because of two different packs of them, one to the south of the house, and one to the northeast. Probably 5-6 in either pack, but when they start yipping, it sounds like 50! I haven't heard many all through out the summer, but now as winter is nearing, they are coming out of the wood work. Sure wish they would take out the stupid armadillos and the groundhogs that are tearing up my yard, and digging under my wellhouse!

Debbi, you should read the other article I posted early in the week. The coyotes in Missouri are related to but not exactly like the ones here in NYS. Ours have crossed with wolves and are bigger--especially the males.
