I hope they give you the back story. That is a once in a lifetime, trophy. Congrats!
Thanks. I didn't know what to do with him, he was shot with a turkey load at 6 yards and it made quite the hole. It was also a bit of gut as he was scooting, and smelled horrendous. I would have loved to make a wall hanger of him, but it was pretty bad. I really hope I can get info on him. YouTube video will come in the future! :tup:

Hard to complain about wdfw not managing wildlife scientifically if one wilfully interferes with scientific data collection.

I'm gonna say predator/prey study going on in our area.

Thank you for this. I have sent them an email, and explained what happened. I told them if they need GPS coordinates, pics, the collar, etc. to just let me know. I also requested any info they have on that coyote.

His name, Coyote 4. He was trapped and collared by UW on Aug 30 2018, just east of Diamond Lake. His estimated age when trapped was was between 2-3, making him roughly 4-5 when he died. He had a pretty small home range, compared to some coyotes, of 35 sq/km. He was part of the WDFW and UW Predator/Prey project, research on the implementation of wolf populations and their effects on other predators/prey. The collar is going to be returned to UW so they may conduct more research on his behaviors and movements. I gave them what pictures I had and also the coordinates of his location, so they can attempt to study him further. Overall, a very informative and awesome experience.

Nice work! Hopefully the "study" does not conclude that we limit shooting yotes to a permit only.

Was the battery still good and transmiting on this collar?
Male?
I wonder how they figure what these predators kill, or what kills them just from their movements.
Obviously a turkey was the predator in this case. Ha ha!
Thanks for the interesting post.

Congrats! Have you had a chance to put on youtube yet? Would love to watch this.
It is up. Unfortunately the shot wasn't caught on film, we were in a slow period and camera was off. It all happened so fast!!
