I know we don't like to talk about things like a chew out but I had something special this week . In the month of December I had 3 chews one day and a single on the next check, I was devastated and figured out what I was doing wrong . I attribute it to loop size too large and support collars that were loose in support wire . Since them the problem has ended.
On Monday I caught a coyote wearing a snare that had previuosly been chewed off ..I was happy to say the least but today I caught 3 nice dogs and was informed tonite by my skinner that 2 of them had freshly healed scars from snares. They were caught in the same bait site where the chews occurred and must have been traveling together then and still are . It is encouraging to know that they do survive the mishap and proves that coyotes are one tough critter ..pictured are the repeat catches ,the single had the snare on and 2 of these 3 had scars ..for all I know the fourth one could be the eagle wrecked one from 2 checks ago.
