Coyote almost ran me over!

I have them in the back yard.

I know in Marshfield there are a bunch of them. On the Marshfield Forums the topic has come up a few times when pets have gone AWOL

Straight from the MA Wildlife Abstracts:

Anyone ever eat Coyote? curious to know what it tastes like.

I hear it's not very good at all, haha. Considering that they're scavengers and eat all kinds of shit, I wouldn't want to try it either.

According to my girlfriend i eat all kinds of shit too, so I guess coyotes would taste alot like me?

Coyotes --- Lyme

I'm not so sure I want to hunt yotes anymore. Lyme has gotten much worse in the last decade and I'm worried about my 2 boys. http://lymebook.com/blog/geographic-incidence/lyme-disease-in-massachusetts-counties-county/

To survive & reporduce the black legged (Lyme) ticks need the white footed mouse and deer for their nymph and adult stage blood meals. Yotes eat those things. Seems to me fewer yotes means more ticks. Wonder if I can call out a mouse and hit him from 100 yards away.

With the population numbers of coyotes, and the difficulty involved in actually making a kill, I don't think you need to worry about killing too many.
