This coyote showed along with a smaller female around 5:15 AM.  We wanted to video this kill, so we waited until the fog lifted about 5:45 when we set the camera to roll. I took aim at 200 yards and he dropped where he stood in a heap.
 He weighed in at 40 lbs.
Model 700 bolt 30-06
20 minutes after this kill, we filmed a very large Bobcat, that when he came across the dead coyote, he exited stage left in a hurry!

A very special "Thank You" Goes out to my new found friends for presenting this opportunity!
Thanks Jay, Irene, Cheyenne & Cheeco

How wolf-like are Maine coyotes?
Since the late 1930's, people in Maine have noted that coyotes in this state were different from western coyotes.  Maine coyotes are larger, averaging 30 lb. and 35 lb. (female and male, respectively) as compared to 21 lb. and 24lb for western coyotes, and prey more on deer than coyotes out west. However, it was the occasional coyote that topped 40 pounds that really sparked people's curiosity.

I shot this coyote at about 75 yards at night with a .308. I dropped him as you can see. 
He weighed in at 30lbs.
Maine used to be able to take coyotes by Snaring. 
This photo was taken a few short years ago!
Now look at the problems we face, because we can no longer harvest Coyotes properly in Maine!

Two dark colored dogs were showing up at my bait pile at 100 yrds away. 40 minutes prior to them showing up I had my Foxpro caller going with a Kitten Distress call.
This one weighed in at 48lbs. He was shot with a TC Encore 22-250 with a Nikon 6.5 x 20 Monarch Illuminated reticle Scope and a Sierra 55gr FMJ reload.

A Special Note  About Trapping & Hunting!
It's great to see the next generation learning to continue the tradition of trapping...
Especially where Maine has had to suspend the snaring of Coyotes and the bounty this year!
If Coyotes are left to live and multiply unchallenged by humans, they will destroy much of the wildlife we now enjoy.  The work of our State Biologists building our deer herd, bear populations, 
turkey populations (back from extinction) and Moose Population. 
(Might I remind those of you that need reminding... Maine has to allow more moose to be taken in 2004 than any past year, due to the amount of fatal collisions with moose from over population of this animal. And... While I am on that topic... More people die in the State of Maine from moose related accidents, than any past year, hunting related deaths!) 
Please remember... Humans and Animals must co-exist. Humans are the dominant Animal !
Humans have built houses, factory's, stores, and shopping malls... Humans must also control Animals population growth for a well balanced world... for all Animals to THRIVE!
Ask any hunter... They will tell you! It is not all about the kill. Outdoorsman that hunt also enjoy everything that non hunters enjoy and probably get to enjoy it far more and more often that most Anti hunter activists!
For example: 
I saw an Owl catch a squirrel this season. I saw a porcupine with it's babies back down a 50 foot high pine tree.  This Archery Season... I saw a deer shake and tremble before I harvested it. It was during a thunder storm and this young, two year old, spike buck trembled and shook all over during a very loud thunder. Have you ever seen that? I doubt it! Steve B - Webmaster
