Gerbils are for wankers, raccoons are where it's at.

Ummm, that should read plants, I have Patagonia pants, and ever raccoons can't tear those up.

.223, night scope, and a big hole in the ground. People in WI used to take butchered deer carcasses and stake them down real good then sit over top it with a semi auto 223. Some friends got 28 in one night, there were six guys in different spots. Went back the next night and got 15.

So? My friends used a decommissioned Apache helicopter loaded with Hydra 70 air to ground missiles. They hovered downwind of six dead cows and got 242 coyotes one night.

I never knew WI had such a coyote problem. No wonder Jer nukes them from orbit and beheads the remains.

pfft. My friends used a BAR, two Uzis, a small tactical nuke and a piece of salami on a popsicle stick. 7,637 in 11 minutes.

emu......

**iceman** · 10-23-2012, 04:34 PM

Problem Solved:

Kangal Dog/Anatolian Shepherd/Turkish Wolf Dog
(3 names for the same thing)

Coyotes would not bother them a bit.

my sister's 200# Mastiff is good protection

I actually like coyotes. Coyote hunting is weird.

Anybody who has a house cat that they just let outside in coyote country is a fucking moron. They're called house cats (as opposed to barn cats or feral cats) for a reason: THEY BELONG IN A HOUSE!

Lately people have been complaining that thier little dogs are getting chowed by wolves - WHAT IS YOUR DOG DOING IN THE FUCKING WOODS MORON?!?!

Dokie and Vlad (PMSGear Barn/Shop cats) have never had any problem with coyotes. Then again, they're stone cold killers and the coyotes probably have this fact figured out.

But yeah - get an earth-shaking, deafening .223 with a "night scope" and blast away weaklings. Anybody who uses anything less than a 20mm rotary cannon with depleted uranium rounds is an amature.

**jamesp** · 10-23-2012, 05:26 PM

Are you sure its even a coyote problem? Maybe its just a kid dressed up in a costume. The only logical way to find out for sure is to just start blasting away... http://news.blogs.cnn.com/2012/10/22...unk/?hpt=us_c2

**plugboots** · 10-23-2012, 05:34 PM

Anatolian Shepherd

Thanks, Ice. This was the breed I was looking for. My neighbor has one to protect his sheep. He has no Cougar or Coyote issues, and it's a really cool dog/pet.

**Flyoverland Captive** · 10-23-2012, 05:45 PM

An Anatolian Shepherd would be bad-ass.

I stayed at a ranch in the Bighorns that had a Great Pyrenees; holy shit that was one tough dog. The owners said he'd often go out early in the morning, find the 'yotes, and kill one or two. They'd try to gang up on him, but he didn't give a shit; he'd just have more to kill.

**HansJob** · 10-23-2012, 05:53 PM

I use neutron bombs. that way no property gets damaged.

Inside of 35-40 and that is probably a dead yote.

I like this one so far. Hate to kill animals, but if they're going to kill your animals, well then, they are fair game.

Damn...and this big guy is off da hook

Very common to hear three different packs hunting on still winter nights.

Unless everybody gets serious, those guys are there to stay. I don't know where you are, but if it's anything like that I don't think killing a few is gonna do much good. Up there in NY people have built fenced yards for their dogs (on farms where the dogs have always run free), to protect them from the coyotes. I think you need to pay attention to food sources and keep the cat in the house for a while at least.

Not too mention in NY it's illegal to fckn possess a slingshot OR any sort of fire arm to protect yourself, your property or family...which is bullshit considering NY is a very woodsy and beautifully wonder "outback" state....for an east coast state.

maybe you should make a cocktail and call the authorities to come and help you, order a bj in the interim.

the ills of a stoopid police state island polluting a perfectly beautiful and wonderful upstate. Maybe install a camera...seems to be the flavor of the moment...

**iceman** · 10-23-2012, 08:35 PM

Yeah, everybody in New York hunts with spoons.

wtf are you talking about, you moron?

231,000 deer in 2011. With spoons.

I just checked our chicken coop and found feathers everywhere. One mostly-eaten carcass outside; one chicken nowhere in sight; and two hiding under the deck. Looks like the yotes were here. Goddammit!

**jahoney** · 10-23-2012, 10:18 PM

shoot the fuckers, with something big enough to kill them.

hang the bodies on some posts at the perimeter of your property. serves as a good "fuck you" to the rest of them, and lets them know what happens if they decide to wander into the area.

you don't keep a llama/alpaca with the chickens?
