Disgusting. What the hell is it about the Calsportman videos that are always just a little bit off?
The site tells us Coyotes are aggressive and ruthless. (45 pounds of raw fury I guess, basically lives on field mice, rabbits, and very small game)
But whatever, I suppose you might not want one around if you let your cats on the back porch or something. But watching this goober “protecting his family” is a hoot.
The chubster manages to avoid a heart failure as he chuffs across the field with dramatic music playing. He’s toting along a 7 foot monstrosity complete with silencer, Glock on his hip. Chasing the Sheltie size menace, he stops and pops him with his odd looking sniper rifle.
He taxes his heart again running after the wounded animal that is fleeing this behemoth 12 times his size. He then pops it a few times with the Glock. The camera man and everyone begins laughing.
Calsportman, that boy just ain’t right.
Do you live in an area where Coyote are an issue ?
Yeah, that video was...underwhelming, given the promise of the CalGuns article/headline. The ones we have around here are pretty healthy specimens, well-adapted to being around human habitation. A local rancher of my acquaintance and also the former local chief of police has declared war on his place for sheer numbers he’s seeing. They have gotten to a few of this year’s calf crop so that’s $$$ lost to him. I can certainly identify with his need to protect what’s his.
My brother-in-law had one stalking him in the snow during blackpowder deer season. My BIL said that .50 cal. 300 grain pill nearly turned that coyote inside out.
LOL, yeah, gigglz, that was really manly! lol! Perfect interpretation DesRhin! lol!
I live on a ranch, we don’t act like that, lol.
When I was a kid in the 70s up in Montana you could go for years and not see a coyote unless you were hunting for them. The rancher kids used to stop their pick up trucks and shoot them whenever they saw them so they hid from people like you would not believe. When I go back to Montana now as an adult now I see coyotes everywhere because no one shoots at them anymore. That’s why they’re getting a little aggressive, they have forgotten their fear.
But as you said, a 45 pound coyote even when it’s aggressive is now much danger except to it two-year-old toddler or a cat.
