Coyotes are pests, I know a guy who shot one on his property with his .40 S&W handgun and had him stuffed.
Coyote: WTH, lady?! Can’t I just eat my mou’ful?
Saved a cat from getting eaten.
Marni’s poor husband...
And the coyote loses out on a meal because someone stops to help a cat. Don’t get me wrong, I am a cat lover ... however, the coyote has as much right to the meal in its mouth as any animal. The cat got caught, it losses
I shot at one the other morning. It was about 120 yards away and all I had loaded was a .22 long. I took the shot in my bath robe (I was about ready to get in the shower). I missed, and it ran. At least I didn’t wound it, and at least it ran. I really wish I had hit it. Pests.
I saw this a couple of years ago - a coyote running across the road with a cat hanging from it’s mouth. In spite of liking cats well-enough, and owning them - I had to laugh. That cat probably thought it was at the top of the food chain on it’s early morning prowls hunting the various critters of suburbia. Not so tough now - huh kitty!?
One came in my yard where my cat was sitting and I chased it with a broom. I’d chase one off but never more than that.
We actually have a lot of them in this part of FL. They are usually pretty skittish but this was a potentially very foolish thing this woman did.
We have them in the City of Chicago and in no small numbers. They have been filmed walking around the Loop at night like they own the place. And in the County forest preserves they are common.
WRONG again...it wasn't a cat, it was someones (human) property. Would your asinine comment be the same had the coyote snatched a baby from its basket?????
Reminds me of a few years back when I heard my chickens sqwaking and ran out on the deck. A fox was in hot pursiut of my rooster and they ran right below me.
I started screaming and cursing that ol’ fox!
He STOPPED and looked at me with one foot raised and I proceeded to inform him that he was lucky I’d ran out that particular door because my shotgun was just inside the back door and a few descriptives of what I’d do if he came back.
When I came up for air, he just took off and no further problems.
Still don’t hardly know how that worked.. but next winter I was x-country skiing and heard a skiffy sound behind me and there went a fox! Keeping an eye on ME I guess.
If the coyote were eating an environmentalist, a liberal, or someone from PETA I would agree. Otherwise, I'd help the cat. The coyote loses.

You are equating cats to humane babies ... please. It might have been someone’s (human) pet, but it was just that ... a pet. An animal susceptible to all the intrigues of animal instinct.
Cats are domestic, coyotes are not. There's world of difference.
So you think that’s funny? How you going to like it when one grabs your little son or daughter? They are not domestic and should be wiped out from domestic areas.
You can thank the Liberal wildlife promoters for reintroducing wolves to herdlands and refusal to eliminate varmints. When wolves get a senior, the Liberals will be happy as they won’t have to pay any SS to her anymore and they can divert the money to a politically more beneficial element.
Anything and everything is directed to some sort of population control.
Dead suburban voter killed by coyotes means no counterbalance to an urban Liberal voter.
