Caught a second mangey coyote in a snare in the same area as the first. It's becoming problematic!

Jerry, have you one a vid on setting snares? If so, got a link?

@papafrog777 I did not do a dedicated snaring video this season. I'll get to one during the 2012-2013 season. Thanks for the suggestion and keep watching! God Bless, Jerry

what do you do with the meat??

[bluemountaingunworks]

@dap52521 Nothing. I just drag it off into the woods to decay and get fed on by vultures, crows, and the eagles that winter here. Take care, Jerry

Can you use these mangy ones to run baitpiles for setting snares and footholds for other predators

[bluemountaingunworks]

@HuntTrap13 No, the coyote is the top line predator around here. Most everything will shy away from the carcass other than vultures and crows. Good thinking though! Take care and God Bless, Jerry

Thats a shame, don't know but seems a waste, great series lots of real good info, farmers must love it (nasty lil creatures)

Don't get too close to that critter, your beard may suffer. hahaha ;) My Papaw used to kill mangy old stray dogs because he couldn't stand to see them suffering. Hope you get the coyotes thined down so their fur gets healthy again for future use.
