Just so

I've seen a coyote trotting down the middle of the street next to my house at 10:00 am. In the darn city. They come from the Santa Ana river trail that's a block away, usually at night.

My dog is completely blind and deaf but he still has his sense of smell. He normally loves using his doggy door but there are times when he absolutely refuses to go near it.
We figure that means there's a yote in the area and he's picked up the scent.
He wouldn't stand a chance if a coyote caught him outside.

Blahahaha! A blue eyed wolf is a coyotes kryptonite.

Coyote tang aside, I got some old game cameras out of storage and set them around the farm to increase my coverage.

I don't hunt (birds and ground hogs are the exception) so unless my son is home the older cameras gather dust. I really do want to see if the Coyotes are tracking the stable. So far, nothing. Usual stuff, deer, squirrels, me, the dogs, etc.

This one showed up last night. Good looking Fox. I forgot what a hoot game cams can be.

They're beautiful animals, Paul...thanks for sharing.

As much as I love the still pics, the glowless Moultrie that followed me home from Gander Mtn is simply awesome in 90 sec video mode. Had mine out when Apple/pear trees were bearing a couple months ago....just totally cool videos of deer social interaction and other critters with awesome sound too .

Absolutely! I have asked Santa for a little love this Christmas...

We have resident bobcats, hawks and other predators that help keep the small mammals, snakes and wounded animals in check.
A few year back, the Coyotes started showing up more and more and the small game like rabbits and quail have basically disappeared. We now have a standing rule that all Coyotes are shot on site. We see quiet a few on trail cameras but it is not often that we see them in daylight.
This one was taken by a friend two weekends ago...never saw him before on a cam. For reference, the buck in the photo was 195lbs...the Coyote was a HUGE male.

You sure that's a coyote? It doesn't look like any I've ever seen.

Btw, on the topic of trailcams, My Bushnell Trophy cam is still the best I have owned. But there again I don't go much over the $150 range for a camera either.

That is a black coyote?!

Any more pics?

That may be a melanistic coyote.
Rare color variation,due to melanin.

More dangerous creatures: All fear the barn kitty!!!

[DerkPerk]

We call that a prairie lion.

[Jolly Amaranto]

Taken on my property in Milam County, Texas.

[Seahawk]

I am guessing Bobcat?

That is very cool.

The coyote has not shown up on any of my, or my neighbors game cams...lots of Red Fox and deer.

[Jolly Amaranto]

Yes, a bobcat. I am still waiting for a cougar but doubt one will ever make it this far east without getting shot. There is only so much room out in Big Bend National Park in West Texas so the young cougars usually get run out of the park by the older established cats. They don't usually last long after they leave the park.
