what to do with a coyote?

[benhuntin]

Turn me in Luke.  Go get yourself some points.

looks like good shootin. I can't remember the last one I picked up.  Hunted with a member on here last year and he had to pick his up to get tanned because it was his first. Hope he reads this because I laughed at him then to.

Luke....Please come off your high horse and provide me the link or screen capture from the regulations showing I'm in criminal violation of anything...anything at all by leaving a coyote where if falls. I would very much like to see it since you have now labeled many people as criminals that should be turned in for this supposed game violation.

I'm not missing your point.

I'm not on a high horse. Granted... yes it comes off as me wanting to inprison evrybody.  Not what I said or meant.
Don't you guys remember what Ethics are? You probably leave farmers gates open as well huh.
 

Come on, I'm not trying to pick a fight, I just want people to remember that every single day, there are those out there that want to take away our rights, and completely outlaw hunting.

I personally want it to continue. I don't want to lose hunting after we lost trapping in 2001.
Remember their tactics back then?? They had comercials running day and night to the poblic about how bad trapping was and had images of 3 legged cats on tv.

I don't want them to have anymore ammunition, and a "Pile" of coyotes would be a perfect comercial for them.

So you figured if you can't beat them, join them?

They are a bunch of crazies and so if someone shoots a coyote and doesn't "harvest" part of the animal, you would try to make an example out of them as well??

Like I said, you've lived on the west side too long.

It would be really hard to salvage any meat off of the coyotes that I shoot, especially when I fillet them out with my .300 Win Mag.     You could probably get a couple hundred "points" off of me and all the song dogs I have shot and left to rot.     And no, I couldn't care less what anyone else thinks of it.  At one time I shot 18 coyotes off of the same cow carcass and left every one of them to pile up and add to the bait pile.  The people who would use pictures of piles of coyotes to promote an anti-hunting agenda are the same folks who would go out and kill the coyotes themselves, pile them up and take pics to prove their point.  PETA does it all the time.

No we don't leave farmers gates open, we leave dead coyotes on the farmers land with their permission.

Of course you aren't trying to pick a fight. You have stated clearly that if someone violated what YOU belive is "right" you wil attempt to turn them in for 10 points using photo evidence of a violation/crime that YOU invented.

There are NO regulations stating that anything at all must be used, saved, consumed, or even given a second thought in regards to the licensed and legal killing of a coyote.

The killing of a coyote is completely legal.

It is not us that are giving hunters a bad name. It is you. You that would make up your own set of rules and expect completely legal and law abiding hunters to change.

[BiggLuke]

Coyotes are animals too. You say, buzzards gotta eat, and worms gotta eat but come on.
What next??

You got a picture to brag about a pile of Mule Deer?
Or maybe a Pile of Ducks?

I agree that coyotes are better off dead, and aren't tradionally native to this area, but niether are wheat fields.
No need to make hunters look bad.

[h20hunter]

Mule deer and ducks are protected by bag limits, antler restrictions, and general game rules and regs regarding wanton wastage. What are you doing comparing the two? They have nothing in common in regards to the regulations.

Tell that to Judge.

[h20hunter]

I would be happy to. Please....show me where the regulations say anything.....anything at all about the wastage of coyote and where I will be penalized for it. Please....call a game warden...ask him or her....email them even and post the reply. You are citing garbage and threatening to turn people in for nothing!

You can't legally kill a "pile" of mule deer.. but yes, on the bird topic, I've seen plenty of pictures of someone's harvested pile of birds  and fish too, and anything that's legal to hunt in multiples...

[Gringo31]

   This thread has turned awesome!

Luke, there are a great many discussions on this forum regarding ethics and most of the people who post have a high degree of them. If you choose to eat coyotes, good for you. Not eating them and leaving the carcasses to rot is fine with the state because they're vermin and need control but are not necessarily a food game animal. The same will go for wolves, and a great many won't eat cougars, either. I know few who eat porcupines, nutria, beaver, muskrats, or raccoons, either. That doesn't mean they have no ethics.

You're a fairly new poster to the forum. In your zeal to join the group and be part of what's going on, maybe try a little less hard to show everyone how much more ethical you are than anyone else. You don't know any of us or how we hunt, what we do hunting with others, how we care for our game animals, etc. I would maybe go along on the assumption that you're dealing with equals until you know otherwise. Just my

Will coyotes eat coyote? I've always wondered about that.
