OT - How to Scare Off Coyotes?
My neighbours have a problem with a pair of coyotes frequently coming v
close to their house (on an acreage) and threatening their dog and cats etc. Was wondering if anyone could suggest some aversion therapy (other than bullets or poison) to help deal with the problem. TIA for any suggestions............ Laurie Forbes |

Since this is r.c.m, I suggest lead, jacketted in copper, sent thru a
rifled barrel, at 2800fps. Once they have overcome the natural fear of humans, we need to re-aquaint them to the fact that we are a predator that is higher in the food chain. Otherwise they will continue to harrass small animals and can move up to small humans. Not a good situation. Sorry if this seems to be a bit too much of a dose of reality... John |

Your comments are right on target. As much as I like those little wild dogs, they're a serious threat. There was a report recently of one attacking a child. It may not happen often, but it's a reality. They're smart and cunning animals that should be respected, and feared under the wrong conditions. Harold |

We had this issue come up in our neighborhood recently. We're in a suburban community which happens to not be in city limits (thank God). Coyotes have been coming into backyards and making a racket, probably thinning the cat population. At a neighborhood association meeting we asked the sheriff's deputy attending, for advice. "Shoot 'em. They aren't protected, they will eat your pets and they can threaten humans". |

IMHO I could care less if it hurts a coyote or not, as long as it
kills the SOB's........and not just scare it away.preferably a long slow death....well not realy long and slow and quick would be best, but I really hate those *******s with a passion. This area is loaded with them. Even the state bombs them with poison baits from aircraft and they stillmultiply like crazy. One year I shot 14 of them without even trying. The kills were all accomplished on my way to or from work or just by happen chance to see them when I had a gun handy.....I imagine if I hunted them with a predator call etc I oucl deaily have more than doubled that number....... A few years back I found 3 little coyote pups in a den. Gave two away and kept the third, a female.....it was not like a wolf or fox by anymeans, and no matter how kind it ws treated, it wsa just as unreuly and mean as a wild reared pup would have been. I gave it to the wildlife officer up the road, who shot it in the end. None of the other two pups were able to be trained either, and were also destroyed......Its not uncommon to see them setting along the interstate watching cars go buy without a care in the world.

Hmmmmmmm
I think something along the lines of a M-79 grenade launcher with HE or WP rounds as a minimum, or perhaps a 81 mm mortar with HE or WP........preference would be call in an airstrike of my old buddies in the 187th FW and let em put some JDAMS on target......or the U S Army guard and their Apaches and lay down a barrage of hellfire's.....Close would be close enough I would suspect ;-) On Thu, 11 May 2006 19:26:55 GMT, Bruce L.

I would forego the sponge and bacon grease thing ands go with a chunk of cork, ground up or crushed up to crumble sized pieces. ONe or two miller or budweiser beer bottles, busted up into pieces about 1/8 x 1/2 or just some small shards about like a pea or so.1/2 pound of hamburger meat. Place hamburger meat in frying pan, and add crushed ground up cork, and glass.. Stir well and brown and simmer until its soaked into the cork........Using gloves make a few patties, and place in conspicuous spots for coyotes to find..........They eat these burger patties, and during digestion the grease is supposed pulled out of the cork and it makes it swell up (so I am told) which causes binding or impaction of some degree to the intestinal tract. Gut and intestinal tract action combined with glass shards cuts intestines and creates internal hemorageing......and of course peritonitis. I supose the sponge deal works about the same way but just causes blockage without cutting the intestines and making them bleed and leak thus creating peritonitis On Thu, 11 May 2006 17:32:23 -0700, "Steve B" wrote: "Mike" wrote in message ...

Not too many critters can take a head shot with a .22 cal LR and its
as deadly when hit as it is with a 06' I have always heard theonly feeling a person feels if shot in the head is where the skin and meat is compromised, and that the brain itself has no nerve endings and doesnot feel any pain itself, so hell a 22 even if it did not outright kill the critter, is not gonna feel all that much, even if its doing all kinds of death throes..........it only feels the hole the 22 made, and the rest is just nerve reactions making it look grossly like a lot of pain.

Roy,
It was a serious question. I would really like to know how big your dick is. I am not trying to provoke you or insult you so, there really is no need to try to insult me either. Thank you.

Not too many critters can take a head shot with a .22 cal LR and its as deadly when hit as it is with a 06' I have always heard theonly feeling a person feels if shot in the head is where the skin and meat is compromised, and that the brain itself has no nerve endings and doesnot feel any pain itself, so hell a 22 even if it did not outright kill the critter, is not gonna feel all that much, even if its doing all kinds of death throes..........it only feels the hole the 22 made, and the rest is just nerve reactions making it look grossly like a lot of pain. You may be right but I have heard the sound of an individual brain cell as it dies . Sounds just like a human scream . It was the brain cell of a lab rat . Not sure if that matters . About the only thing I shoot with a 22LR is Grouse . I was given an old Cooey single shot when I was a boy and have used it for grouse ever since . I used to shoot a lot of gophers when I was young but there are none near where I now live sadly .. In open fields it is a lot easier with the Swift for coyotes . Ken Cutt |

Gerry :-)} London, Canada As it should be! Harold I used to do a lot of wrought iron work. People would have me make fences and fence extensions and gates and all manner of stuff to "keep their cats in the yard." You need a really high wall, or a roofed enclosure to confine a cat. I'd build it for them, and know it wouldn't work. Steve |
