[QUOTE="DSheetz, post: 2484102, member: 91783"] For many of us calling and hunting coyote is a way of life it's not something that we just do in the fur season . We do it for a wide range of reasons but most often for the person doing it as a job it's for the protection of livestock for the stock producers . We love the job or don't stick with it as it's a hard way of life . There are a few times in the year , on average , that you can feel overwhelmed . The pupping season , is one of those times because they are a lot like us they want to have and raise their families , and often that means killing the easiest animals to feed them , livestock and the other young of the year . Then again when they are teaching their kids to hunt and make a living for themselves , life for the control worker gets hectic . That normally takes place in late summer and early fall . Each and every one of us learns what does and doesn't work for us at different times of the year . In the spring of the year I like the sounds that are most commonly heard in nature that time of the year , fawns of all types , little animal sounds , rabbits ect. .
