Can you take your donkey and cows into the Manson unit and crush some coyotes and cougars there?

Coyotes aren't ethical.....

  The fact that so many obviously don't give a darn about a fast, ethical kill with regard to animals like coyotes is just disgusting and doesn't speak well of our sport.

Who said coyote hunting is a sport? It's like spraying for bugs to me.

Coyotes aren't ethical.....

That's one of the most idiotic things I've read in a while. They are a predator, no different than a cougar or other predators.  The fact that so many obviously don't give a darn about a fast, ethical kill with regard to animals like coyotes is just disgusting and doesn't speak well of our sport.  I have a relative that is a big cattle rancher.  He has seen coyotes eating half born calves as the cow giving birth helplessly freaks out.  It's nature at work. It's not always pretty, but a coyote will try to survive.  "Ethics" don't play a roll in how a coyote survives and to try to say that any animal doesn't deserve an ethical kill is pretty crappy.  I understand that some folks may take a more iffy shot on a coyote and not feel as bad if it ends up being a bad shot. I certainly hope anyone that does that would dispatch the animal as quickly as possible after such a shot though.


Did I hurt your liberal view on an ethical coyote ? Too me, coyotes are worthless vermin that need to be shot and killed, period. I lived in eastern Washington for nearly 17 years and have seen my fair share of what coyotes do to any and all animals. You're preaching' to the wrong guy. I hate coyotes....Coyotes aren't ethical.

Thinking there is anything liberal about me is laughable. I STILL live in eastern WA and shoot coyotes on a regular basis. I'm the CEO of a decent sized company, a self made multi-millionaire and probably one of the most conservative people you could ever meet.  I just happen to believe that if you are hunting anything, whether you call it a sport or vermin control, every animal deserves as fast and ethical of a kill as you can deliver. I can guarantee the next time the bunny huggers want to wage a campaign you will see copies of posts from forums like this where "hunters" are bragging about how they like to "whack em and stack em" and not worry about clean, ethical kills.

Your post is inappropriate. If you can't have a conversation with other hunters without attacking them, then don't post. Also your language is inappropriate.

I do not see any problems with language here, but am more tolerant than some other moderators.  IMO saying something is idiotic is not a personal attack.  I might be overruled. 

However, I actually agree with dryside that any animal we kill deserves a quick death, animals don't have a choice to follow human "ethics", we do.  When I squish a spider, I don't pull its legs off first.... This may cloud my judgement here.

I've seen that since posting, the moderator report was not open when I looked.  I'm always a little behind on these.   ;)

We should always strive to do the "right" thing, some situations might not matter so much if we don't get it done.....   :rolleyes:

Every time I hear my friends talk about "why they hunt coyotes" I'm reminded of the Steve Rinella podcasts where he's had the wildlife historian, Dan Flores, on his show.

Found this interview with him in a more easily consumed media...

I honestly try to treat all animals with respect when dispatching them.  But as mentioned I will take “poor shots” at them and other vermin such as starlings.  I do however follow up as quickly as possible.   I’m not into torture.

What about that coyote you dispatched a few years back with your bow, wasn't that a 1 shot kill?

I'm a big, very right leaning redneck and said nothing about, ME, saying wounding or maiming a coyote is this or that. Coyotes aren't ethical, is what I said.

What a person does for a living means zilch to me. Having lots of money means zilch to me. Being a CEO means zilch to me. I guess that means you know more, than most on this site, because of your statement. Good Luck on that one.

Oh ya, 99% are.  I just know I’d take a shot on a yote I wouldn’t on a deer or other big game species.   Basically I’m protecting my own....
