Apple eating coyotes
« on: September 12, 2016, 09:44:41 AM »
Threw out a few apples below the house to get a few deer pic's (which I did, over 170) but the coyotes seem to enjoy them also.  Did'nt realize they'd eat apples

they love fruits.  If you have low branches on an apple tree, they will jump up in there and try to get even more apples.  Not climbers like foxes, but they try.

Coyotes eat fruit for days. They are a scourge to melon farmers
Kindly do not attempt to cloud the issue with too many facts.

I used to goose hunt a corn field that was next of a carrot field found lots of orange coyote poop along the ditches.

If a coyote can get it in their mouth, they will eat it.

They really go to town after they start fermenting

Interesting- I have good year around access to apples, maybe I'll put a big bait pile out this winter and thin the population around the house down a bit.  They need thinning badly, can't sleep some nights for all the howling and carrying on they do. I'd do it this fall but don't want to bring in the local bears that close to the house.

My dog will steal my apple from lunch if I don't keep an eye on him.
In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

I am a bit disappointed.  I wanted to see an apple eating some coyotes.

My previous dog LOVED apples.

Used to have a dog that would chase apples i'd throw from the tree.  On his way back he would eat 1/2 of it and drop the rest at my feet.

I know they like pears to. One time I had a bunch of pears out and I think every coyote for 10 miles came to clean them up.

It's always interesting to see whether the deer or scavengers will eat them first when I put out apples in front of one of my cams
