What do you do with a coyote you shot?

[wafisherman]

i feed many many mouths and beaks with mine.

Please explain.  You feeding your family?  Dogs?  Chickens? 

Curious, as I have a big family (8 kids), 2 dogs, 3 cats, and a small hobby farm (chickens, ducks, geese, rabbits, hogs)

He leaves them for the scavengers.  Ravens, crows, magpies etc.  They have to eat to.  (Coyotes would love your place.)

or you could do like a kid i worked with once & leave it in the back of your pu for a couple weeks so you could show it to everybody. untill his neighbors complained of the smell & he dumped it in the shops dumpster.
so many options. i like the educational aspect the best. teach the kids about the yotes & thier impacts on the environment in which they live, be honest & dont sugar coat it. better than haveing them learn from a different source.

If I could find the coyote roast thread from last year I'd post it up

I usually donate mine to a guy that sells them to a fur buyer. I hunt them for fun, and have no use for them.  If he can make a couple bucks off them, its better than me leaving them in a ditch.

[CAMPMEAT]

I'd actually donate them if I could get paid for my time, travel, gas, ammo, insurance, wear and tear on my truck etc. So basically, it's not worth my time to do that.

[MadHatter]

I normally take a picture, and leave them... Once in a while I will use them for ballistic testing, when I am trying a new ammo and want to see how it performs on flesh, i will generally do this if I am going to the range the next day... Before my huge chest freezer crapped out I would sometimes freeze them for use as bait later on... But 99% of the time I just leave em...

Probably sent while sitting on the ferry... While using Tapatalk 2

Make a stuffed animal. Buy a head from a taxidermy catalog, mount that but fill the body with pillow stuffing. I'm sure some of the taxidermists on here could help you out

  $200.00 for a coyote, not! crap 200 for a midwest bob is good. west side coyote maybe 5-20 bucks if its good. Idaho coyotes full body, unskinned, go for 5-25 bucks!!!!
Kill em cuz they eat deer and elk babies!

Folks around where we are thought I was full of crap about the coyotes and how bold they are.  A lot of neighbors like to take walks in the woods with their dogs and have them of leash and not well trained to come on command.

My wife has bear spray (we do see a few each year) and she is pretty good about taking it.

After last weeks attack on a Griffon that the neighbor was out walking I imagine the concern about me whacking a few coyotes is gone.  The neighbor was fortunate that it only required a vet visit and some stitches.  If she hadn't been close behind the coyote would have had dinner.

Trouble is (IMHO) the neighbors don't aggressively discourage the coyotes from being around and it didn't take the coyotes long to decide there were some easy pickins.  I have encouraged a few to stay out of my place and it seems we see one to re-educate every year or so, otherwise they steer clear.

Here is a good example of coyotes living inside city limits and also what littlemac is saying about folks opinions of them.  These were set-up on the sidewalks along the Golden Gate Park in the middle of San Fransico....

lol that's funny right there!

Griffith Park in California had a serious problem and MacArthur Park as well as I recall from an article in American Hunter awhile back.

I found the Griffith Park tale here:  http://www.nbclosangeles.com/news/local/Coyote-Problem-Gets-Ugly-in-Griffith-Park-59993177.html
