One day a couple of years ago I noticed that my neighbors Angus cows were very upset and moving into a circle pushing the calves into their circle. Then I saw the reason.... 5 coyotes.
I sent my wife to the house to get my trusty .308. I killed 2 of them before they decided to leave the cows & calves alone that day. Strangely enough when the first one was hit they didn't even look to see what was happening. They were still trying to get a calf. When the 2d one went down they al took off.
Last summer I heard my doberman raising hell. I was busy and didn't go to see what all the commotion was about. It was later that I realized that one of my Jack Russells was missing. In the next 3 days I killed 2 coyotes from a blind I made in my back yard.
I haven't seen any around the house since. I know that doesn't mean they aren't around. I think instead of taste aversion they have found a place to avert.
