Washington Yote

[Guy M]

Shot him a couple of years back and had him made into a rug for my son's room. Rascal measures 60" from nose to tip of tail - the yote - not my son...

These guys prey on our local mule deer herd, and of course I'm partial to preying on that herd myself, so I like to cull the competition and get some good target practice in by popping the occasional 'yote dog.

good thing you took the collar off that thing before you rugged it. lol that dog is as big as my shepard!! where do you hunt yotes? i'm lucky if my yote weighs 30 lbs.

Well, first I went to the pound, and got this big ol' pound puppy...

Naw, I hunt coyotes in Chelan and Douglas counties for the most part, sometimes Okanogan county. These things are a lot bigger and look a lot better than most of their cousins in the southern Californa desert areas where I used to call them. I actually do concentrate my coyote hunting in the areas where I also hunt deer. Figure the deer herds have enough stress on them and helps me justify shooting a few coyotes time to time. I have to admit, I'm not real serious about it though.

Guy,

We're practically neighbors. I hunt song dogs in Grant/Adams/Benton/Franklin counties, though I'm not as successful at finding big ones as you seem to be!!

I ain't one to brag but i've killed coyotes waayyyyy bigger than that one -125lbs. and he wasn't the biggest one in the pack- he didn't have the typical silvery coat yours does -had quite a bit of black on him.Big bulky head too.
Coyotes over here can and do take down elk -man love shooting them...............
