The big red male I shot was 47 pounds. Most here would average 30-35

Our eastern coyotes are much bigger than the western dogs. They're about as big as a German Shepherd. GTFO, lol. Must grow German Shepherds different out east too

A few days ago I eased up to Piney Creek looking for ducks. A doe came hauling ass down the creeks upper bank cow trail and passed by. Figured I would wait and see what kind of buck was on her trail and waited a bit. About 30 seconds later a huge, dark brindle wolf looking male coyote followed by a smaller female came slowly trotting along on its trail. I rolled him with a load of 6s at about 35 yards. Kind of looked enough a like a medium sized red woof so I didnt want any pics on my phone. Pretty sure it was just a big dark phase coyote with German shephard dark face colors with light grey hair over the nasal aspects of its eyebrows. Weird for about a 55 -60 lb coyote I thought. They will get on deers trail and stay with it 2-3 days not letting it feed or rest until they wear it down. Then do their crazy howling to call reinforcements in for the kill.

Feed store a couple towns over had a yearly coyote contest based on weight. We killed a 42 lb male that year. We weren’t even in the top 10. Biggest was just over 50 lbs.

When I was about 18 and the wildlife expurts were still saying coyotes didnt bother deer I was stalking along squirrel hunting in a South Texas river bottom in total camo. A coyote opened up about 200 yards ahead of me and a few seconds later I had to jump aside to keep a big wild eyed doe with a big fawn from running over or through me.
I thought, silly deer, coyotes wont bother you. So much for wildlife expurts.
I've seen a doe stumbling and falling down steep rocky canyon wall while deer hunting in NM once. It was pretty noisy and I heard it coming first. I wondered WTH. About 15 min later a single coyote came calmly trotting down its trail.

I couldnt remember at the time re legal status of dead red woofs. Besides, I have plenty of dead coyote pics.

Nice coyote Slum. Only one I've ever seen in the wild (that I was sure was a coyote) I missed with a flintlock around 1998 or so.

Early one morning, I watched 2 coyotes "team tag" a fawn. One would chase a bit, bring the fawn back in a circle, then the other would give chase. I wanted to see how they worked, so didn't shoot. Fawn got away - went full-tilt down a rockslide, I've been on (VERY slow up or down) I found the fawn, by itself, about 30 minutes later, up just below the rimrock a little around the mountain.
