Looks pretty aggressive to me...

Studies have indicated the "Eastern" Coyote may indeed be a wolf-coyote hybrid rather than just a big coyote or a coyote-dog hybrid.
I have a dog that is part coyote and she is by far the smartest dog I have ever owned (and I used to own bird dogs which are really smart).
Her mother was half coyote and half german shephard, from the foothills near Glendale, mentioned in the story.
With more and more illegals coming in over the border ...
All predators are like this two and four legged.. When their prey is defensless (think gun control) they soon learn to stretch their boundries as they test limits
The more predation a target prey TOLERATES the more predation will occur..
Fill the air with the blood mist of predators and they can wind that smell for miles...they know the smell of their own kinds blood and it fills them with FEAR...and when predators fear they scale way back..
Only armed victims who routinely demonstrate the will to fight back... scare predators and teach them their place.
The good news: My ACME stock is going through the roof!

No. Californians just look more like prey. (Sheep)
Yes, I hear they're using interest only mortgages a lot more often in recent months.
Sorry...couldn't resist.
What size gun would one need to bring down a coyote? Would a 22-mag be sufficient?
Some of our oldest FReepers may remember when there was a bounty on these varmints.
We are seeing coyotes here in Boston. Here in the CITY. There are coyotes apparently in a couple of the large parks near me. We have some disappearing animals, especially cats, and I think a child was recently attacked by a coyote in the Milton (suburban) area. Scary stuff.

Just don't buy it from Acme, lol.
Coyotes accustomed to humans aren't the problem. Coyotes accustomed to unarmed humans are the problem.
Anyone done an interview with Wily Coyote yet?
"When they learn that people aren't a danger to them,"
Around my place, they learn just the opposite. Consequently, they're even cordial to my cat.
Coyotes are rats. Kill 'em.
In PA you are suppose to shoot coyotes on sight on everyday of the year except for Sundays.
2 years ago we were conducting a drive during the 1st Saturday in deer season. The pushers were making there way through some pines when I heard one of the guys say there was a coyote ahead of them. The only shot fired from our group that day was from one of the pushers when he shot the coyote.
"When they learn that people aren't a danger to them, they become very brazen."
Good one! LOL!
