Coyotes losing their fear of people?

[Javelin]

I just saw another (what I think was a coyote) tonight a little after 1am running around the streets by the elementary school. Ran back into the field when it saw my headlights.

They come through our parking lot at work religiously. I don't know if its bravery or a lack of options.

Very likely you saw a coyote, as to them being out of options? Not to bloody likely, thats just the coyote, bold, at times in your face, and wily!

I watched one morning as my neighbor and his family exited for the days activities, kids to school, mom & dad to work, took about 20 minutes for them all to leave to their various destinations, I was watching because I was out front waiting for a ride to work, sitting on the front step.

A moment or so after the mother left I caught a flash of motion from the shrubs just adjacent to their front door, literally no more than 60 inches from where they had all poured out the front door, out popped a large, beautifully healthy, coyote, he stretched, and loped off to the backside of their property, this was in Roseville, which is no more than 5 minutes from Minneapolis, a city of 3,000,000!

She was a small woman, likely on her period and I bet she ran from them. Three strikes.

If I am in the woods and a Coyote comes within Glocking distance, it is going to get leaducated.

Love this!

I am on the south side of Atlanta by the airport and there have been on and off sighting of coyotes in the subdivision I am in. My father has even seen one in the back fence on his way to work early in the morning, maybe 20 feet from his truck, just standing there looking at him like it didn't care.

I grew up in the "mountains" of western Taxachusettes and can recall seeing many of coyotes that had cross bred with dogs and roamed in packs of yotes/wild dogs/hybrids. Pretty big dogs, almost the size of German shepherds.
Not too comforting when you're twelve and out camping in the woods with friends in a 35sq. mile town with 1200 people in.

It's best to blame my misspelled words on autocorrect.

That's where I am now and they are still very much around. Found most of a neighbors sheep some years ago, and hear them almost every nite. No more wild turkeys in my yard either.

Got this one @ 75 yards with LDI DBAL-I2 IR Laser and Barnes 70 grain, shot him right between the eyes and the Barnes put an nice half-dollar sized exit hole next to his anus....

We recently had a guy bitten while lounging in his back yard here in Peoria AZ. I see them on a regular basis, usually on the way to work or on the way home. This and my friend's recent suggestion that we hunt 'yotes prompted me to get my 'G' hunting license for this year so I'm ready to go get some.
