Came across this fresh kill on my way out this morning ..the story in the snow told the grusem story...3 coyotes were fleeing the carcass as I approached. 4 Eagles stayed with the carcass all day

I also saw the same thing when fishing winni a few days a go. Looked pretty gruesome

This was in wolfboro. .
It's the 5th one I've seen in the last 2 year I usually don't see the perpatrators...but I caught them in the act..
One circled back 2 times to chase the circling Eagles even as I got closer with the wheelet...

Kind of a sad sight, Joe.
Too many yotes around these days.
I did see a pic the other day of a guy holding a dead yote in front of his bob house.
Not sure about the legality of that, but it was good to see a dead one.

Is what it is. I’ll say I like to carry though. Some places. Natural order of things but the yotes can push it. Raptors aren’t always exactly my cup of tea either. But hey, they’re ‘majestic’.

I’ve always been a bit apprehensive when I’m the last guy off the ice after dark.

absolutely... I've had a few people tell me they would have stayed in my portable with a night vision scope and had taken a few of them out..

I've trapped quite a few of them... nothing I've ever caught fights harder once confined..

This makes me nervous considering i fish alone often and at night? Guess i should carry.

I always have my chisel handy....it has a lot of uses.

A few years ago, I was out with 2 friends fishing on on Deering Reservoir and we had a pack of 4 or 5 coyotes cross the ice and stop to watch us for a few minutes from about 50 yards away before they got jumpy and moved on

No issues, just strange to see that behavior

Jetmec89 · « **Reply #14 on:** Jan 24, 2018, 01:54 PM »

Hard to tell. Is that a small deer kill or a domestic dog? I try and legally kill evey yote I see. Too many decimating our deer herd.

I shot a female during deer season that was over 60lbs. There are some big dogs up in them there hills.

Fished the same area Saturday. ..all that remains is a blood stain and a few random bones

Well they have to eat too. We can't have all the deer. I personally love the sound of them at night. The deer may have had its legs splayed on the ice and a goner anyway. In that case the yotes were a clean up crew vs. a bloated carcass come ice out.

Perhaps if you saw the videos of the number of fawns the yotes kill and bring to the den you might feel differently?

All part of nature. Lions, tigers, leopards, wolves have all evolved doing it. The coyotes and wolves were here long before we were. And before that the Dire wolf and the sabre tooth tiger.

Ever been to a slaughterhouse? The cows are standing in line and when one goes down from the bolt gun the next one knows what's going on but he can't get away and so on.

When I was a meatcutter one of our sales guys for a big meat packing company said the hogs are gassed asleep, and moved and hung on conveyer hooks, and their throats are cut while their hearts are still beating to get them to bleed out better.

The human species is probably the cruelest most wasteful predator on the planet. We kill for fun. In rural China they skin dogs alive as they believe the more pain the better the meat.

They are great scavengers and like turkey vulchers and crows are needed but the populations still need to be controlled. Especially since an average litter is 4 to 6 pups at a time. So taking them as sport or fur is definitely needed. In my opinion if they stayed in their dens till after deer season they'd have a better chance at not getting lead poisoning.

I’m meat eater and livestock is on the earth for man to eat...slaughterhouses are a part of life just like the farm. Coyotes are not native to New England...they are adept at killing and surviving, so much that they have expanded their range to cover most of North America and with the northern deer in yards because of deep crusty snow, the woods are tipped in favor of this prolific predator and I will kill as many as I can for that reason...and have fun doing it!

taxi1 · « **Reply #29 on:** Jan 28, 2018, 09:02 PM »

I thought I read somewhere that controlling them is futile. As in the more you kill the bigger the litters become due to a better food supply?
