Coyote Hunters

[BILLY D.]

bru

ditto what cobra said. i've seen other yotes feasting on left behind carcasses and also crows. i guess there is such a thing as a free lunch. lol

yes they are fascinating to hunt and a challenge. i like to hunt just before weather fronts move in or just as after they are moving out. i like to cross country ski and i can get into some pretty inaccessable areas that way. last year about this time i almost killed myself doing that. i was starting back to my truck and had a back spasm. had to drag my skis behind me and the last 3/4 of a mile i was walking on my hands and knees. the one redeeming factor that kept me going was imagining the headlines in the morning paper: idiot freezes to death coyote hunting. when i got back to the truck i never realized i loved it so much.

by the way , yes i do carry a cell phone for emergency purposes, and i have a cb radio in the truck. a very tweaked cb radio. i'm 70 and don't like to take too many chances. but if they do find me dead sometime and i'm in the woods or out on the prairie consider that i died a happy man.

have fun chasing yotes they are lots of fun and you see lots of other interesting things, depending on the time of year.
