There's 3-4 coyote pups playing in my backyard every morning around 6:30 am about 150 yards from the house. They're fun to watch, but I don't really like them back there. Should I just let them be, or try to get rid of them? They're not that wary and wouldn't be too hard to shoot from my porch.

They'll be gone in a few weeks to dine on fawns for several years, your call.

You would save a lot of fawns by eliminating them

Capture them, tame them and learn their ways.
The intelligence gathered would go a long ways in the never ending struggle between Man and Coyote.
If that dont work you could teach them to do tricks and take your show on the road.

Give them an "ACME Products" catalog, a picture of a Road Runner, and then let nature take its course.

Jim Conrad, et. al.,
OR you could take a page out of the Lacey family's book & create a new dog breed by crossing-in their coyote DNA.
Fwiw, our "official TX state dog" is a dog/coyote hybrid. = The TEXAS BLUE LACEY.

trap, neuter, release.
That way someone on the fire call tell you, "I was worried about those coyotes eating my deer, not raping them..."

Bang, bang, bang, bang - there's a solution. That's the direction I'd go. Plus I've got a new .223 to bloody.

I thought you dudes were more fearful of those dreaded 6lb orange tabbies in the condo next door.

Bye bye quail and pheasants. And Turkeys, deer, rabbits any small domestic critters and even dogs....your yard, your call, but when they kill something you don't want them to, it's on you...
