[QUOTE="DSheetz, post: 3082304, member: 91783"] I got a call to go take a den one time, so the rancher met me and showed me where he was having lambs killed and left me to my work. I got set up in a good rock pile and was looking the pasture over with my 10x50 binoculars when I spotted a coyote just lying in the sun on a cut bank out around 500 yards. I made some adjustments to the way I was set up and got the coyote located in my scope then let out a series of coyote locator howls, it stood up looked my way then answered me, I talked back at it and it headed my way at around 200 yards it stopped and was just standing staring my way, I gave it a couple of short sharp half howls and it ran towards me, at about 75 yards it was still running my way so I barked at it and it finally stopped at about 25 yards. She was a wet female coyote and showed that she had given birth to six pups. Having done this a few other times, I went down to where she had been when I spotted her laid down and looked the direction she had been, and right there in plain sight was the den. It was getting late, so I loaded everyone in the truck and took them with me. I slipped back in the morning of the next day sat up in another rock pile and just listened for a while. In an hour as the sun was coming up, I heard an old male give two half-length howls and two quick barks. He did the same howls and barks over and over again for twenty minutes before I answered him with some higher pitched female howls and barks the same as he had been doing. He went quiet and started my way then out about 100 yards he stopped and stood there so I gave him another set of howls and barks the same as before he replied back then turned a few circles to make a bed and laid down. That was when I learned some new sounds, he was looking for his mate and pups asking them where they had moved to. He never got up from his nap. [/QUOTE]
