Kyle we have them bad in south Jersey maybe they took the ferry over...LOL Do you have a season for them yet.In Jersey it's the cheapest permit to get $2.00 but they are very weary animals and hard to get.

I saw and heard many when out deer hunting South Jersey when I lived there years back.  I am sure they are all around in Deleware, MD, etc.  I've had them in my backyard here in Pittsburgh many times.

When we are at Lake Mead we see them skulking around the lake looking for dead fish.
I hate 'em.

Michael Arnette, your right. They claim if you find a litter of pups they are all fat little butter balls. One of the best hunters out there.

Wanna trade ? I'll take all the yotes in Delaware and I'll ship you all the wolves in Montana   :pray:  

Joking of course. This whole predator population control deal is a touchy subject. It has become very politicized out here and has pretty much been taken out of control of the biologist that conducted the reintroduction to begin with. Are the game departments on top of the issue, or are they getting held up like they are out here?
Is it September yet?!

Until now, it was hard to find a game officer  to admit they were here.

I guess if they are in Central Park in NYC, they are everywhere.

We have coyote problems! Two other trappers and myself killed right at 5,000 in the last three years in this ONE county. I have been working a deer project, where our deer numbers are low, and I can't keep up with all the coyotes.

Coyotes are the most adaptable animal on earth. I would be very suprised if there is any place in North America that does not have a viable population, even the most urban of areas. They eat anything they can find. I watched one catching and eating grasshoppers in a hay meadow for hours. They will come into your back yard and eat your dog's food or your dog if he is small enough.

This is a picture of coyote pups that a friend and neighbor found in his woods spring of 2009.  They look just like domestic dog pups at this young age.  He saw the bitch run off when they got close to the hollow tree where these were denned in.  
And, yes, he had to take care of them in the manner the ODNR prescribed after I suggested he give them a call to see what they required.  (That is all I will comment about that).
I was et up with coyote hunting before the Trad Bow bug hit me hard.

Hi All,

I'll add the same two cents....when we lived in Albuquerque, New Mexico we'd see them in the middle of town during daylight hours.  They weren't affraid, but were watchful of people.

Interesting part about DE is the fact we are a penninsula.  I can understand seeing them in the northern portions of the state due to the proximity to PA.  To find them south of the DE canal is scary.  We are a small state.  They could decimate a landlocked deer population quite quickly.

We have had them in NewBrunswick since the late 70s. Coyote hunting is catching on here with the electronic predator calls. Hunting them can only reduce thier numbers at best.

Those pups are cute little buggers..>>>>RAY

kbetts,it's not that they could decimate a landlocked deer population ,it's more like they will!
