I get more barking, challenges, and howls at me from males than females. I'd say about half of my catches are vocal and its been about like thst in my 40+ years of trapping. Jim
Money cannot buy you happiness, but it can buy you a trapping license and that's pretty close.

Normally ours don't howl but when there's a full moon its like there wolf instincts come right back in a flash.

I think he's talking about a trapped coyote.

They howl at night here. I like listening to them howling.

This fall I trapped further north than I usually do and notice the northern coyotes weren't nearly as vocal as the ones closer to home. My theory is if a coyote is held in a trap in an area with wolves, they will usually remain quiet so as to not advertise their predicament. But then that's just a theory and I don't have anything to back it up. I'm sure there are areas where the coyotes are not as vocal and there is no wolves around.

Many vocal here. I notice it more with adult females more than anything. I don’t like it and hit the mute button as soon as possible.
I'm itchin' to see a coyote twitchin'.
More trappin' and less yappin'.

I think he's talking about a trapped coyote. yes 30-40 years ago only ever heard one in a trap when i came up to it howl and only a couple bark.. now 2020 LOTS of them bark and howl when i approach them in a trap. was wondering if anybody else that trapped 40 years ago had non vocal coyotes in trap. and now days lots? don't really have much for wolves here.. i have never seen one but have heard a of a few caught.

I can’t even get a good pose on my coyotes, much less be vocal. Mine just lay there like they’ve already given up. Sorta glad they aren’t a ferocious as greys act, lol. Sort of like this one?

I have always thought it was a sign of dominace. In other words, the vocal ones were not used to be inconvenienced and stood over...even by a human. They are the ones that always done the inconveniencing and standing over the subordinates.
Its been about 50-50 males and females here that barked/growled/high-pitched howled agressively at me as I approached. They seemed to not want to submit at all.
To put a % on how many have done this over the years...id say about 25%. Caught my 1st coyote in 1982. Ive experienced this since the beginning.

I have had several yotes start barking and howling when I pull into the fields. I can gear them while I get my stuff ready. Those are rare but you see it every year. I’m had it in my head one year that the longer I let them bark the catch really slowed at that location. Jury is still out on that one but one thing is for sure nothing can be gained by letting them vocalize. I shut those up quick. Just my opinion.
