Coyote trapping
 
Recently i've stumbled on some coyote tracks (including some 15 feet from my front porch), this might sound like a stupid question but how do i attract coyotes to a specific location, I've tried throwing out some dead chickens, but how do i cover my sent

The coyotes will come to the scent of the chickens...or any other bait for that matter. You don't need to worry about covering your scent.

Yep, just throw it out there and go back the next day and you'll only find poo and pee. Atleast thats been the case where I'm at. They seem to eat anything too. Problem is they seem to come by in the middle of night when everyone is sleeping.:lol:

Will they still eat em if the chicken is frozen?

For sure! Half the stuff they eat is probably frozen. My grandpa will haul a dead cow out to his coyote set up, and the coyotes will work on it for weeks, well, the coyotes that live through each day :evilgrin: :lol:

I went out for the mail yesterday and a coyote ran out in front of me. Right down the middle of the street. I was suprised at how far into a residental area he was, and how calm he seemed running along.

I started throwing out pork hearts, but i heard that the coyote can tell the pork is demestic and they wouldnt go near it

I'd put money on the hearts being gone fast. I've thrown turkey carcasses from leftovers and they don't last the night. Along with even dogfood.

Any light meat parts like chickens or hearts should be frozen in a big tub of water so they cant carry it off. they will get brave after a while and make a try for it in the daylight, just takes time.:wave:
