I share something that I experienced years ago when I was trapping coons back in the late 70's.If I caught a skunk,I'd shoot it and leave it in the trap.It would usually spray,so I kept my distance from it for awhile.Everytime I did this,in three days,the coyotes would eat the skunk and roll and tear up the ground where the skunk and trap was.I remember an old coyote and Texas red wolf trapper during that time period use to brag that he would bet a man any amount of money he could catch a coyote within three days.I've often wondered if that was his secret.If I was after coyotes these days,I buy some skunk scent and give it a try.

As Bob Hagel would say"You should not use a rifle that will kill an animal when everything goes right; you should use one that will do the job when everything goes wrong."Good words of wisdom...............
