This one is a bit "interesting"

This one was so pissed he couldn't run fast enough to get away, he tried to bite his own leg off.

This one figured out that if he bit his foreleg, it made his eyes glow! Too bad he learned that trick a bit late in his life.....

WTF? I posted one picture like this and had like 5 pages of people all pissed off?  Sombody even started a thread about it. I like these pictures i have seen alot of coyotes doing this after being shot. Keep it up!

It's all about respect for the game animal being hunted. Seeing animals in a death throe is never hilarious IMO, and is always something that we try to avoid. In a perfect kill, an animal would drop in it's tracks without any sign of struggle but that usually only happens with frontal head shots.

As you mentioned, there are very few instantaneous kills. Those are typically spine/brain shots, which are typically not taken as there is much less margin for error. A perfect kill to me is something as quick as is reasonably possible. These shots are typically chest shots, and the animal is dead within seconds. Sometimes they do "things" within those few seconds. There is no disrespect intended toward the animal.

Are we REALLY worried about the "High Ethics" of a clean kill of a chicken thief? So how is a Piss Poor shot on a Yote different than snaring one or legholding one? I realize these are illegal methods, i think they should be legal...   The only way to make a dent in Yote populations it to trap intensively and and shoot every one you see....

While the reason I hunt them as hard as I do is to give the pheasants a break, I still respect them, and have grown to respect them even more after having come to understand them much better from hunting them. I wait until I have a good shot. If I don't have a good shot, I don't shoot. That's just my program. Not telling anyone else what to do.

Nice pics they show what is real.

It was actually a good vital shot and a very quick, clean kill.  If I see them struggling I'll keep shooting them, I have too much respect for them to let them suffer.  I just had never seen one freeze up like this.  If the group wishes, I can take the pic down.

I don't see one single thing wrong. I'm sure yours is "how you found him" as was mine. It's an interesting trait that they do this, and nothing more. No wrongdoing has taken place. Some people are hypersensitive. Sucks to be them.

Im fine with the pic...it is what it is...a dead animal.  not like your posted pics of you torturing something.  Thats the way it fell when it died.....as i said before, it is what it is.

I dont think that mangy yote was ever worried about the quick kill as he was eating a new born calf while it was still alive. I show respect to animals when I can but come on a coyote?
