Several years ago, on the outskirts of LA, I remember reading about a coyote that came into a sub division, and when a man was leaving for work and had left the door open for two miuntes while he went back in to get his keys, a coyote drug his two-year old son off the porch and into the weeds across the road.

When the Dad came out, he saw the coyote, yelled out at as it was putting its nose into the high grass, and scared it off. When he went to investigate, he found his two year old there...dead.

I'm afraid I would have had a mission after that...one of extermination.

Coyotes have vastly expanded their range...become larger...and more agrressive over the last 20 years.

Here in Idaho, the best coyote gun I have is my FAL.

Haha, the 308 Win. will slap one down quick. And 19 rounds to follow if needed.

Personally, I think folks have gotten too far away from nature. They don't realize that a Whitetail buck is more dangerous than a pitbull when the rut is on. Bull Elk and Moose are 5 to 10 times the size of a Whitetail and can be just as mean.

On a trip to Yellowstone years ago, I witnessed a fella sneaking up on a Bull Buffalo just outside of Ol Faithful area. This fella got up to within 20' of this bull and the bull decided that he would run over the top of him, just because.

The fella wasn't hurt bad, other than some nice hoof prints on his arms and legs.

He couldn't figure out what he had done wrong.
