We had a wildlife expert tell us not to kill them.

They will just be replaced by younger juveniles that will do the same thing. He said hit them with bb guns or pellet guns and they will learn to stay away. They will also maintain their territory so you don't have to worry about new juveniles coming in and creating problems.

Has anyone ever dealt with a coyote problem?

CrimWalCoug All-American in practice

Maybe dont build your house where they live?

2/19/20 10:30am

Monkey is right on this one...

Coyotes move in pretty much anywhere there is food and cover.

No touching

2/19/20 10:54am

Ok so most of the American west is now off limits.

2/19/20 11:23am

All im saying is dont be surprised when wild animals are near where you built a new house on recently undeveloped land.

2/19/20 11:25am

I’m not surprised to see coyotes around.

CrimWalCoug

That’s funny but so true. We see them almost every night and just are used to

Where are you at? Our coyote problems never escalate. At $50/head, they get wiped out pretty quick

Just make sure you get their scalp and a tooth! 😉

$50 a head?

2/19/20 12:37pm

If you live in Utah, you can get paid $50 for each coyote you kill.

easy fix:

Here's a good instructional video on getting rid of coyotes:

They wander around on my base like they own the place

"All your base belong to us?"

Coyotes are considered varmint. If they really aren’t running, I would pull out

Bow? Who are you Robin Hood?

Bow makes sense. Quiet and lower risk than a rifle.

This. If you are in a neighborhood, a bow might be less concerning to neighbors.

ACME has some excellent products for that.

We had a problem with them once when we lived in a similar location.

BigD Coug

2/19/20 10:35am

We get $55-85 a pelt, that has kept them away

wabluecoug

2/19/20 10:44am

bad idea to kill them. Not that I care if you kill an animal. But biologically

Romex

2/19/20 10:54am

Nature is so fascinating

crack

2/19/20 10:58am

Yeah, but, 55-85 a pelt..

JohnnyComeLately

2/19/20 11:01am

Kill them faster then... They are fun to hunt...and shoot.

BYU4eVeR

2/19/20 12:58pm

One other solution..... without shooting them...

BYU4eVeR

2/19/20 1:00pm

But then you'll have to bring in grizzlies to control the wolves

2/19/20 1:12pm

How much trouble is it to skin one of those things? Just the ears or something?

JoMax

2/19/20 11:10am

Not too bad with a sharp knife. During Sept-Dec you don't have to skin them

TAMUCoug

2/19/20 10:48am

Yep, they reproduce faster with more pups if you kill them. Then the juveniles

Romex

2/19/20 10:52am

How do dead coyotes reproduce?

mwcoug

2/19/20 10:56am

Excellent question

TNT

2/19/20 11:00am

You will never kill enough of them to make a dent. There are so many of them

Romex

2/19/20 11:02am

????

mwcoug

2/19/20 11:06am

People have been trying to kill them for a hundred years, there are more of them

Romex

My dad used to say: In nuclear war, 2 things will survive- cockroaches & coyotes

Joe Rogan clip with coyote expert Dan Flores

Dan Flores' book Coyote America is great.

Listen to the Joe Rogan Experience Podcast about Coyotes. It is actually super

Romex

2/19/20 10:49am

The problem is you aren't giving them a reason to fear you. Should be next step.

ochobeeguy

2/19/20 11:04am

The key is to mark the dens and kill them just before

Our dog is part Pyrenees and I think that helps keep them off

Very common in Sun City Anthem in Henderson, NV.

Stringer Bell

Shoot them.

zonacougar

Just saying if you are in Utah you get paid a Bounty for killing

crimedog

2/19/20 11:39am

Just keep giving them cats.

my gun would take care of the problem... EASY solution

Yes, we have a pack of 12 or so that frequent our area
