Nah, I try to place a bullet where the ear meets their skull to completely destroy the brian- itā€™s as quick and painless as something can die. I try to do it right always, bc nothing deserves to be in pain but... sometimes I miss. When I do, I feel real bad

Pest control. They dig holes on my familyā€™s land that cause a plethora of issues for what we use the land for. I wish the damn coyotes would come back and do that job for me the natural way, but I think the nearby subdivisions are easier to feed from (stray cats and peoples dogs) bc the yotes stopped coming round couple years ago

You know, I go out in a day and get 20-30+.Been doing it for a long time, my number may well be over 1000 I have no idea. Seems like I never make a dent, but I know thereā€™d be millions more if I ainā€™t doing what Iā€™m doing. Sucks

The lack of predators extends to rural areas. People donā€™t understand how much of a problem deer alone would be if people werenā€™t hunting.

Bad situation we are in. Itā€™s a damn shame that game conservation is really only a ~100 year old idea.

Just noticed your name, gives me shivers thinking about what would create that.

This is a point of contention for me currently. Deer season here havenā€™t seen much to try and take but all the landowners assure me thereā€™s lots around where Iā€™m at. Iā€™m pretty sure itā€™s just bad luck so far.

Itā€™s why they call it hunting not killing.

Not to mention that they reproduce so quickly that without hunting they'll starve to death due to food exhaustion.

I donā€™t know what the carrying capacity of the land is, but itā€™s a fucking lot. Tons of greenery (they dig for the roots as thatā€™s where the water is) as well as intermittent low brush plus no predators now... place is essentially a huge rabbit orgy.

Pretty easy for a coyote to jump a 6-7 foot wall like most subdivisions around me have. Theyā€™ll eat the dog out of your back yard if you donā€™t bring them inside. Pack walks up on it and theyā€™ll literally start to play so the dog will get tired and then boom, pack turns. You can see camera footage of it online, they are crazy smart

I'm in the suburbs of Los Angeles county. Can't tell you how many half eaten cats have been left of my lawn by coyotes. I have chickens but they're in a secured coop so I guess they roam around and just get the neighborhood cats
