I got to witness, live and in person, a pair of coyotes take down a yearling doe this afternoon. If I live to be 100, I will never forget the sound that yearling made as these little bastards began removing her intestines and hind legs. I was able to kill one and I hopefully hit the second one somewhere but doubt it. I put the deer down but it was amazing how much damage these killing machines did in such a short amount of time.
Used to be you would catch a glimpse of a coyote every now and then on my place....I killed one yesterday and one for sure today.
Im not going to hunt them out, I dont believe its possible even if I wanted to. If I could, I would napalm the entire area, since I cant, Im going to poison the countryside. I know some of you guys are pros at this. What works best? poison? trot lines? traps?
Ive got very few yearlings left on my property, one less today. Im looking for any suggestions you guys can throw out.

Trap them and hunt them is the best way I know of. You can never kill them all, but you can put a hurting on them.

I hate 'em too. My suggestion though is not to solicit advice on poisoning or using trot lines for those purposes on a public forum.

Years ago i knew a man who would get eggs from his chickens and use a needle to inject round up and anti freeze into them, then he set the eggs out in the areas where the coyotes were. the rest is history...

Never tried this myself, but heard alot of people say soak sponges in bacon grease and cut it up into pieces. Put the sponges out where the coyotes are.


The world needs more people holding deer in pictures,and less people holding cameras in front of mirrors.

Take it from me DO NOT USE POISON! It is highly illegal to use it and the state dept of agriculture is on the lookout. I am licensed to sell it to my cotton customers only and if one were caught using it now the fines and jailtime arent worth it. Back in the day it was easier to get by with but now you accidentally kill someones pet FIFI and an autopsy will show it. Hunt them down use bait do whatever i hope they die a painful death but im just trying to save you a possible bad mistake!

Ive been thinking about building a 10 x 10 pen with hog wire, cut a few smalls holes for the yotes to crawl through with snares set on each hole and gut each deer and throw the guts in the pen and hopefully catch the yotes coming through the fence

I wouldn't worry about a fifi so much as a radio-tagged bald eaglet. That is what nailed the guys poisoning the quail plantations in GA and FL. Fines, jail time and loss of quail properties in some cases. The bald eagle was radio tracked from south FL and ended up eating a poisoned possum just across the GA line on a quail plantation loaded up with Furdan eggs. Good Luck grin

Round up has virtually no effect on mammals, it is a herbicide. Not sure how much anti freeze it takes to kill something but it IS highly toxic. Also illegal.

Have heard this one as well. I know a lot of "plantation" managers and a couple said they have tried this one on a couple penned "test subjects" and it has no effect on the animal.

Would be great if it would work but I suspect that you would have a hard time convincing a yote to fall for this one!

Without a doubt, this is the best way to rid yourself of a few coyotes:

The sponges and bacon grease worked for a hairlipped man I met in Bruton,Al.

He said you had to get your sponges big enough but not to big.

Their club was finding fawn sculls everywhere. He said the club used to produce numbers as well as quality racks but when the yotes moved in they started seeing fewer and fewer deer. He said they did not overhunt it even a little bit.

Ive had my place for 10 years now, about 5 years ago was when we started regularly seeing them on trail cams pics. Go back a few years and just about every doe had twins or triplets with her. Last saturday I had six adult does in front of me, not the first yearling with any of them.
So we all know whats happening, I think it just took seeing it (and having to hear it) first hand to get me to action. Ive shot three in the last two years but I know thats not going to get me anywhere.
I didnt realize that poison was as frowned upon as it is now and I guess I will have to find other ways.

If the state would put a small bounty on female coyotes, I believe our army of hunters would begin to effect their numbers.

Good substance in all of gobbler's posts above. I wish that I could live at the farm; I'd put a hurting on the coyotes with a bunch of #2 coil springs.

You'd probably never get a coyote to go into the 10x10 pen, but setting traps around a carcass station would be a good way to catch a few. Coyotes are so well-distributed now that there will always be some more to move in and take the place of those you trap. It makes me feel better to kill one anyway.


All the labor of man is for his mouth, and yet the appetite is not filled.

Traps are about your best bet and even at that you can't get them all! Coyotes move into an area and then move out when pressure turns up or food isn't as easy to find.

Trappers have been put out of business by our wonderful state game laws so now landowners are gonna have to pick up the slack and extra cost of learning to and trapping predators themselves! This is not easy or cheap if you truely wish to be effective!

I personally don't use poisons but if I planned to I certainly wouldn't be posting about it on a public forum!
