Coyote PSA

[Gilligan]

They are now certainly as far south on our peninsula as Tall Timbers. And they are big animals. They were "captured" on a friends game camera (200 acre farm) at night near Andover Estates.

And for those that don't know the animals, they are remarkably cunning and hunt as a team. One will sit at the edge of a clearing and entice other animals to come closer; then the rest of the pack, hidding close behind, will make the kill as a coordinated effort once the unsuspecting dog, cat, goat, etc takes the bait.

Have seen one in Huntingtown, Cal. Co. myself. Have seen pictures of 2 dead ones in Cal. Co. and have seen multiple pictures of them taken around Cal Co. from game trail cameras. First one i ever saw was in New Hampshire. Heard some when i was out in Colorado but didn't see them.

Holy cow, coyotes???

Yep..near German-shepherd sized, according to those that have seen them.

Yes, coyotes are supposedly all over Maryland now. SoMdNews.com: Bow hunter kills coyote in Medley’s Neck

Well fed coyote. Those I've seen back in AZ were half that size. Word is out. Lizards and jackrabbits will help you lose weight.

Got a picture of one on one of my own game cameras down in Ridge...just off of Wynn road. Couple of years ago.

Positive I saw one here last year. Bald as can be. Ran into the neighbors drainage ditch.. I was concerned because of all the little kids in the area but they wouldn't let me take care of it.

I took a shot at one on Webster Field opening day of shotgun season a couple years ago. Big SOB too.

I live off Wynn Road. Never heard one yipping and my neighbors dogs are outside all the time. Hate to see them get in a tussle with a couple of Coyotes. I figure where there is one, there is more?

I live off of Medleys Neck Road near Callaway and have heard them yipping/howling at night, so I have no doubt they are around these parts.

I haven't heard anything here.

I haven't heard anything here.

You will, believe me. And you won't ever forget the sound.

 

[DoWhat]

You will, believe me. And you won't ever forget the sound.

What do they actually sound like?

Howling at the moon sound?

Here's a question, I live on a 1/4 mile long private road, around St Marys City area, and quite often walk my dog at night down the road, unless it's cloudy, I walk dark, no light. Any real danger from these things, or would a human scent keep them from getting up to nasty business. Dogs always on a leash then.
