[Shooting coyotes at night with a night scope is not as easy as it sounds.
In open areas like Texas and the plains states not so hard.
On the East Coast the coyote uses the brush to hide while he checks out the area and usually sees the hunter before the hunter sees him.
It is fun, but not something with immediate results.
Trapping is much more successful when done by an expert.]
I have no personal experience with hogs.
I know from reading that they are very smart but have no idea which is smarter.
My guess is that both are smart enough that the difference is immaterial.
