Finally got my 2nd coyote ever and first one this year. Been trapping since November 15 and this is the first. No pics but it was a female pup with a light case of mange. I didn't skin it because of its size and mange but still an accomplishment. No, it wasn't at the set that I previously posted on here. Fat set with unknown lure and a little urine.

Good Job.its a bit disappointing when you get an animal that isnt worth skinning,but dont worry about that you will get plenty of good ones as you keep trapping(and a few crappy ones too) Managing them is important regardless
Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

Keep it up.. some years are a struggle and others you don't have time to clean them all.. keep in mind that there is a cycle to the population about every 7-10 years.. I know in my area coyote are down and ground bird and small game is up... here in a few years it will flip..trapping them constantly on the down years will only make it easier when the population goes up... keep it up and the numbers will come. Keep a log and it will also help to make it easier to constantly trap them.

Great job! Small, Medium, or Large a coyote is a coyote. Too bad about the mange, around here mange runs about 30 percent of my catch.

Way to stick with it. They will teach you a thing or 2 each season. Mange is unfortunately part of coyote trapping.
