Title: 1st Coyote of the year
Post by: coyotehunter on November 01, 2011, 09:01:00 AM: Called in this coyote this past weekend. Pelts are just starting to get prime, I'm gonna give it a few more weeks to month before I go full bore coyote hunting mode!

Some years I just bring them to my taxidermist and have them tanned and give them out as xmas presents. I usually don't chase coyotes during the hot months usually because the pelts aren't worth anything and they're doing their part at keeping the rodents down. Besides seems like they get enough pressure from other hunters. But when the calving season approaches, a lot of the ranchers seem happier not to see them around.
