Do any of you good coyote hunters ever work land where they perform prescribed burns?
Whenever I do a big burn, I almost always stay out after dark and walk the burn to put out any embers. Every time, the short grass areas beyond my fire breaks are filled with coyotes, and they are VERY close to me! I assume they are having a feeding frenzy on all of the ground critters driven or wounded by the fire.
I have seen them near my truck, and then hopped in to drive to the other side of the burn, and caught more coyotes in the headlights - where I NEVER see them unless burning.
I would think that on a full moon night, or with a thermal scope, you might be able to get a dozen coyotes at my farm?
(Just an observation from a non-coyote hunter that doesn't like his increasing coyote population.)
P.S. I assume full grown raccoons are too big for coyote predation? I get coyotes loping on my game cameras, but have never seen them even stalking the fat raccoons at my deer feeders every night.
lol I guess they don’t fool with coons, at one of our feeders we counted 29 coons at one time!
