Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Predators and Varmints What do you do with dead coyotes?

True.......

They bring good money in the winter here.

I have a guy that pays me $15 per coyote, even with the pelt in bad condition, like mange.

I don't know how he is able to sell the pelts on the mangy ones for enough money to pay me, and still make it worth his time to skin them himself.

I drop them behind his restaurant, it's a Chinese restaurant, and pick up my money at anytime. Good deal for me!

No doubt he is using the hair to make chinese fishing flies. That must be it.

Or soup!

Maybe some kimshie

Kimchi is fermented vegetables, nice side dish with grilled coyote

I saw on YouTube some people actually eat coyote meat. Given that they are really just dogs, I can't think of a more unappetizing animal to shoot and eat.

Coyote this year like last year are not worth anything much cept the ears for bounty. Most are leaving them where they drop. Those that do or will have nice looking hides wont be worth the time to even meet with buyers IF any even make rounds this year at all.

Gunner is right, sliced the belly open and the will find it same night, I have seen yotes set for 10 days before varmits start eating on it, hogs two weeks, I drag them to where I can shoot them off decks, can get several off a hog. I grew up in western OK. Yotes would hang from fence posts, old timers knew it was a deterrent to others to cross on there land, I still do it to cross fences on ranch, can’t let Karen’s see them hanging on county roads.

He isn't buying them for the pelts. Several years ago where I live a Chinese restaurant (Wing Ming) was closed by the Health dept. Upon inspection they found house cat in the freezer. I ate there pretty regularly. They always had a buffet set up. And they had fried nuggets on the buffet. I never knew what they were, But they were good. Sorry to see it close.

I usually chuck them into a really thick multi flora or some other type of sticker bush.
They usually get suspended off the ground and the stickers keep the animals from scattering the bones around.
In a few months I can go back and maybe find a cleaned out skull.

grubbing around in stickers for old skulls, has always been one of my most favorite things to do.....

Take a picture of them...

Save them for USD games in Vermillion, SD. The crowd loves to see dead coyotes thrown out on the basketball floor.

There's a spot on our farm where a local white-trash prostitute takes her guys to park and get it on. They almost always throw their McDonald's bags trash out the window and leave it for me to clean up. The coyotes visit the spot almost every night for whatever scraps might be left behind.
So, I jokingly told my buddy that I was going to stop by McDonald's and get a couple of dollar burgers and use them as bait in my dirt-hole sets. Caught 3 of those bastards using hamburgers. It's no longer a joke - and the burgers are less sticky than the other bait I typically use.

What city do you live by Trigg?
