A couple of the bruisers we generally take out. Big strong bulldogs (50 & 56lbs) and the white headed one has a good nose on him as well.

We have tons of them and they are very cleaver animals. We hunt at night and so do they, so naturally we run into problems with them. They will do some amazing things and go to great lengths to lure t

When tried to translate from Ukrainian, one says that this is coyote and the other that this steppenwolf . On some photos they are different, but sometimes very similar. Wikipedia describes them differently. Some says that this red-haired wolf. Wikipedia says that the red-haired wolf is rare, and lives in the U.S. and much mixed with coyotes at this time. Most of us call it a steppenwolf. So sorry, but I can not give an exact answer about who is on the picture. Last 2 years they started to bother us and grow in number . In severe frost and deep snow began to visit the yards. They had tore a calf in front of house, in the night. A dog that was on the chain, did not give any sound. Our attempts have always been unsuccessful. They always fool us and ran behind our backs. When we were crossing their footprints, the dogs panic and some had lowered tails. Only when used snow jets (hunters from another district), brought results. They had to catch up in deep snow....

So much depends on terrain. Hounds work best in some areas, staghounds in others. Hunting yotes with terriers isn't nearly as effective unless you are denning. That said Coyotes live everywhere. Often people hunt areas where a stag or hound wouldn't be very effective. That doesn't make terrier more effective.... but if that's what you hunt with.... that's what you hunt with. I haven't seen where terriers EVER refuse to give chase if it comes to that, and that's what gets most of them killed. There is a member of this board Mainattraction who took what looked to be a medium sized one in a culvert with a solo terrier bulldog cross. It's not uncommon to run into a fully grown pissed off mama when denning pups.

That pic looks like the yote's up here - they are clever critters we generally go out with 3 dogs - 1 patti and 2 APBT. I know of a few packs around our area and I wish we could hunt at night like the Americans, then we'd might have more success. But with that being said my terrain might make it a bit too difficult to hunt at night.

I very recently come across a guy on utube who was using 'lure' dogs when shooting coyotes from a call stand, I'd never imagined this concept before, he sent the dog out on sight & then there was a bit of cat & mouse, sometimes mixing it to bring the coyote in for the shot! Is this common to you guys out there?

Decoy dogs,I have seen online that Airedales have been used for this.

Hi Lads

I am over in Illinois next month for three weeks and will be hunting coyotes but it will be with the rifle.One of my friends out there she has a farm and says they are getting bolder all the time they just sit and watch her when she gets out of the car at night.I have been going out there for ten years and for the first time last year I could hear them calling from my mates house, there is a creek about 300 yards away and they are in there I think

URU I would say those pits did not have a chance being on a chain. some years ago the was a spat of kelpie sheep dogs found dead on there chain around various farms this always happened when the farmer and his wife were out for the day. After awhile it was worked out the culprits were the corgis the farmers wives had as pets off the chain the corgi would not get anywhere near the kelpie and a kelpie would smash a corgi anyway but once the kelpie was chained it could not get away or move and the corgi would make its move and kill the corgi . We are having a simular problem of late with feral dogs in resent years the dingo was has always been around and caused very little problem but now it is hybridizing with domestic dogs making a bigger braver dog that travel in packs around towns the take cats and small dogs and the attack hunting dogs while on a hunt.
