. In my estimation a coyote is smarter than some people that post on this very board.

If a trapper were to go to many of the hunting properties where aldeer members hunt in order to set traps….Where would they most likely set them on the vast majority of properties?....Would it not be on the road systems?...Why would set up there? Would it not be because of ease of travel and high concentration of target animals? Is that not the very same reason the coyote is using it? Using the same logic as what you just said above about how smart and adaptable the coyote is…..why is it then unreasonable to believe that he has figured out how to efficiently work the landscape to his benefit using road systems and such as main travel corridors instead of inefficiently just wandering around hoping to come up on a meal?
