"Compensatory Reproduction" in Coyotes, why killing them equals more coyotes and less deer

Well right on. I’m glad to hear people think they’re a cool critter despite the fact it’s a hobby to kill them in every way imaginable in western states.
What does killing a critters have to do with not thinking something is cool or having respect for that animal? Serious question?

Nothing much more exciting to hunt than an open ground coyote called into close range. That’s super fun.

I’m also good with watching them do their thing and unless I am in the mood to skin one and I know the fur is good they get a pass more often than not.


I’m of the opinion that the two positions are not incompatible with each other.
 
Other than a very few exceptions, if I'm hunting something, then I see a coyote, I'm all of the sudden coyote hunting.

But I don't do it to help deer populations. I do it because it is fun.

Getting a coyote when hunting something else is like getting a basket in basketball and drawing a foul...then making the shot..."and one!"

We are in the same boat. I've watched them and given them a pass many times. Ive also killed a pile out of sheer oppurtunity. I don't hate them or any other predators. But I do love hunting them. Even when the fur ain't worth the gas to get there.

there’s a level of bloodthirstiness for coyotes that isn’t compatible with respect.

We are all hunters here, obviously we all know we can kill something and still respect it and revere it, but I don’t think you’ll find a lot of respect for coyotes in the sporting world, as evidenced by people who simply can’t not shoot them whenever presented the opportunity.
