Coyote are very scary and wiley (I guess thats where the Wiley Coyote got his name
)..J/K they are very smart and hard to kill. We have a lot of them around our property. If DH carries his gun with him in the back fields he never sees them..let him go without a gun and he always sees a few.
Once he was working on fencing and happened to look up, he was on top of a knoll and a coyote was standing on top of a knoll about 200 yards away. He said every time he moved the coyote moved in the same direction. It went on like that for 10-15 minutes and the coyote finally ran off. Of course he didn't have his gun with him.
It will creep you out to no end, to hear a pack of them running through the fields and woods.
