Coyote is Smart, and Coyote is Frugal. Coyote will move.

Much wisdom here.

I unloaded a clip of .22 into a tree past my fenceline after coyotes came in too close. They know how long my arm is now, and will stay just past my reach.

Noise, scent, and the very fact they have been noticed will do the job.

I see you. I know you are here. I am unamused. I have the ways and means to kill you, and I will.

It isn't always good to kill, and I avoid it muchly, but I never tell coyotes this.

Much wisdom from Angry Aperture Arthropod.

Thanks,
Mike
