I read a story once that, thanks to the environmentalist wackos, coyotes now inhabit the entire North American continent. So much for “da enviomen”.
They are but I wouldn't necessarily blame them on the wackos tho. They've pretty much been fair game for hunters everywhere they can be shot. Unfortunately they've infiltrated suburban, high population areas such as where I live and they can't be safely shot at.....
In fact, about 40 miles north of me in a more rural area a lady had a rifle bullet come thru the side of her house during bow season. It was pretty obvious that someone was attempting to poach a deer but the scary part is that the guy used an illegal high power rifle rather than a legal shotgun with slugs......What I mean by illegal is that in the souther half of Michigan you can only use shotguns with slugs to hunt deer due to the limited range of the slugs. It's a safety thing
