coyotes stuck on fence pictures

[SWHUNTER]

Took this picture on the Addy-Cedonia Road today. Thought it was neat. This was right next to the road.

I think it causes anti hunters to hate us more.

I think this is an old rancher tradition but have no idea why.  Seems like a waist.  The pelts look like they were really nice when they were killed.  Just look at those tails.   Probably some old guy so set in his ways he has no idea what effect he is having on the rest of us.  Sad.

Yes, old stockman's way of posting territory to keep coyotes away.

Wouldn't doubt if it was a bunch of teenagers or young guys that don't have any respect for the out doors or those around them.  Maybe an old stockman.

PETA gets a real kick out of seeing that stuff.  They like to use it against us.  Those people that are on the fence when it comes to hunting and see that stuff . . . . .sure doesn't guve them a reason to like hunters.

This is exactly what it is.

I have seen this several times in the past, and it always looks bad. I seriously doubt it keeps other coyotes away.

[addicted]

it's a neat tradition but like you guys say, bad for buisiness.

[docsven]

The stock-men don't hunt coyotes for the sport, so who cares what PETA thinks.  Oh yeah, they don't like stock-men anyway for raising meat for people to eat.

Fuel for anti hunters.

I have seen it where a hunter would hang them from a fence near the gate so the farmer new he had been successful in his hunt kind of a thank you to the farmer from the hunter. but thats normally been on a farm road away from the eyes of those who would take offence. that said I have two thoughts first is probably not alot of anti's on the addy cedonia road, no excuse but... 2nd thing is some of those stevens county folk are kinda odd any how

Coyotes have been put on this planet for a reason, and unfortunately, they are very good at what they do.  As an avid hunter, I wouldn't hesitate to eliminate a coyote (or feral dog/cat) if the conditions are right.  That being said, these "pest" animals do deserve some respect and should be treated with a bit of dignity.  Like it was stated earlier... all this act does is add fuel to the tree huggers' fire... IMO.

Exactly.  I do this with several ranchers if I wasn't able to touch base with them in person prior to hunting.  I would leave a message with them, "couple of coyotes in your back forty" etc.  Then they could just cut the twine and toss them in the bushes.  It helps with some landowners to have "proof" that you are actively removing coyotes, rather than just saying you shot some.  It also helps identify the areas you are hunting if they have an extremely large ranch, and they can direct you to an area that they may want more pressure put on.


Plus it makes it easier to take a picture when you are by yourself.
