coyote

[TheNoob]

I dont think the Yote is climing the fence, the fence would have to be extremely tight and then it would still have to find a way over the barbwire. If there are any shrubery type trees close to the fence then maybe it is using that to get over. It might be where the gate and what ever kind of post it is attached to might have just a big enough opening to get through. As long as it can get its head through then it will squeeze through.

It doesnt take much of a depression under the fence for a mutt to climb under. I also have done a chit load of snareing and have caught them coming under in spots that blew me away.

How do they taste?

Like chicken.

50 acres?

Are you sure they aren't fenced in?


When was the last time you walked and checked the fence?  If they are complaining about a coyote, they must see one.....why can't they pressure it and tell you which way it exits?

set up a game camera or two and you'll know if hes getting through the fence or gate ,

What about digging a deep hole under, like they do for burrows?

I'm 100% sure they are not getting through or under the fence. If you saw the fence you would know why I say this. Also they have a grounds keeper walking the fence and checking every day. Not my idea but reinforces my confidence in the fence. They are going to screen the gates.
Coyotes are just around occasionally apparently so I wait.

The groundskeeper may not have a clue what to look for, unless he has experience
With yotes, obviously he doesn't that's why they are paying you. 14 jailers couldn't figure out how prisoners were escaping out of a Grant county security fenced enclosure, one cowgirl guard spotted the problem
if you have not walked and examined the fence yourself(you did not say) you should. Ya really got to know what you are looking for.    Can catch some pups ready for transplant if you need a partner :-) Fred

Fred,
I got paid $100 to walk the fenceline. It's tight. They did rebuild some fence per my suggestion. Boggles my mind how much they are willing to spend for a yapping lap dog.

[SunnySlopes]

Ya know Bruce, Fred's got a good plan there. Everybody knows a coyote pair can have 20-30 pups. If you could get him to make a delivery soon you could sneak em in a few at a time in your lunchbox.

[castor gitter]

Heck all the ones I've seen lately are big! Bruce would need to have a good sized lunch box . As per what was said above I agree with modifying the gate and walking the whole line again just in case. Also could be with that much acreage that the darn thing was fenced in when they made all the fence improvements?
