I would agree. who said he was hunting? Maybe he was working a ranch or farm. Ever seen the damage to equipment from coyotes digging holes?I own a large ranch and farm, and deal with coyotes every day. I have never damaged a tractor or other equipment on a coyote den. You're lucky. Do you tip toe around the farm hoping not to offend anyone?Luck has nothing to do with it. We know what we are doing. We respect wildlife on the farm. Not sure what your point is. Perhaps there is not one.

Some would argue that pics like these give hunting a bad name. I would agree.
What is funny is that both sides are right. It is predator management and it is fuel for anti's. Even worse, it is fuel for those on the fence about hunting and predator control.Personally I don't have a big problem with the predator control aspect but I don't like to see pics like this on the internet.

I would agree. It's management pure and simple.Not the point It's fuel for the non-hunters. Plain and simple. It's exactly the point.No, it's not. Posting pics like those have nothing to do with managing coyotes.

If an archery hunter shot a calf elk legally, would you guys complain about him posting pics of his kill on the internet?? What's the difference??

I would that's poor ethics in my opinion shooting any baby animal should be illegal in my opinion.If you can feel good about that there isn't much lower you can go.
