Post by: Maverick on January 17, 2012, 11:11:01 AM: Eh... Kinda. The fox built up where the coyotes never really Hung out. So it works out. I don't have any problem finding either.

Post by: gramps on January 17, 2012, 03:55:30 PM: Fatslinger.....there are a few around here now. I had a nuisance call last spring that I could not take 'cause I had just had a surgery. I have only seen one other.
We seem to have plenty of coyotes also...will check with a friend who is a retired biologist.
