Congrats roundoak! Way to break in the new rifle. I'd love to take a black yote some day but haven't ever seen one in these parts.

Congrat's! Of all the coyotes I've seen I have never seen a black one. I have friend that claims there is one on his farm, maybe we'll see... 
Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

Roundoak: I have never seen an all black Coyote (well yours is 95%+ black) before.
I have seen and shot Coyotes with patches of black on their pelts but never one anywhere near as "black" as the one you harvested.
Good for you.
I also would like to know which state this predator lived in?

Sorry for the late reply VarmintGuy
Coyote shot in Wisconsin.
A "standard" coyote came out of the woods first, the black shortly after. At 240 yards with the naked eye, did a double take...thought it was a dog. Cranked scope up to 9 power, cradled the outfit in the sticks...and the rest is history.

Nice....I also have a buddy who tells me he has a black coyote on his farm. Still looking for that one. Glad to know there are a few around the country.
