Illinoisans: Do you have property available for hunting coyotes?

[warpedskydiver 0]

If so please contact me via PM.

I am looking to find more properties to hunt on, so far I only have 2 farms and one needs to get permission from the chief of police because a subdivision has been built adjacent to his 300 acres.

That is a real shame a man has not even had his land annexed and his family has been on that land for over 100 years, now he has to ask permission to kill the coyotes that prey on his calves and cats.

WTF is wrong with this world?

Apparently some of the people in the subdivision have been feeding the coyotes because they love to see them.

I hope they get mauled.

Got no land for you, but putting the word out about coyotes not being pets, and potentially very dangerous is probably something your farmer friend should be hammering on the Chief about.

So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh
Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright
'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life
Make light!

Uhm, Randy.

You might want to rethink that last statement.

Just saying here.

His wife said he was out yesterday with no luck though.

I don't need permission OR a gun to bag a coyote.

Yum, grilled dog.

This guy was pretty large, and was taken with a 255/65/R17 from a sitting position, on my way back from skiing. Because of the large size, I thought it was something else until I looked it up. The ones which I've seen near my house are much smaller, I'd say maybe 20 pounds or so.

Fuck you, I too am a Coyote lover, and as for hunting them? Where is the challenge there?

So what if they eat a few cats?

[skyrider 0]

BTW, the rabbits they feed on, do more damage than Coyote's!

We have foxes and hawks

Right. You possess exactly the kind of character I would be looking for if I were going to allow an armed man on my property near my family.

255/65/R17????

I'm not familiar with that caliber.

Off to Google I go.

Hmmm, feeding coyotes is a crime, encouraging them to get close to humans where they can easily prey on young kids or old people and pets and you think they should not become a prime example of why this should not happen?

Did you ever hear of being a victim of your own stupidity?

Well aren't you just a pocket full of sunshine? Have you ever had an optimistic, non-argumentative thought? Just askin'...

Why are you creating sanctuary for coyotes that are now used to contact with humans?

What next, are you going to commune with polar bears?

[billvon 3,063]

Your one warning. Cut it out.

Potentially a very dangerous situation to be sure. If you turn the redneck faction of the fightin' 101st keyboarders loose out there with weapons, I'm reasonably certain you could expect that they WILL shoot some things. Maybe coyotes, rabbits, squirrels, dogs, neighboring houses, empty beercans, etc.
Problem is, this is not a solution to the problem. It's just an excuse to indiscriminately shoot animals close to a residential area. After the coyotes come back and people say "look they're back, they must be hungry", you will be in exactly the same position you started in.
999,999.99 times out of a million, the answer is not shoot first think second.

Absolutely. In fact, all the time. I also appreciate your concern. It warms my heart.

So let me guess, you would prefer catch and release?

Any solution must first and foremost address the behavior of the people surrounding the area.
Other than that, it's specific to the situation.
