[QUOTE="DSheetz, post: 2237073, member: 91783"] Memorial Day 1989 we had gotten some rain showers just enough to settle the dust and make the world a quiet place but not enough to make it muddy . I was out working in the pine ridges east of here on some lamb killing coyote . The day before I had howled in the old female , she showed that there were 8 pups out there in a den not too far off . I parked my truck up at the top of a ridge and walked down a two track toward where I had been the day before . There was a small draw that the road ran down beside of as I got down toward the bottom of the ridge I crossed the draw and found me a nice pine tree to set in the shade of in case the fog burned off before I was done this day . As I sat there some thing seemed just not quite right .You know the feeling you get when some one is watching you prickly skin maybe goose bumps . On a small rise across the road and in just a slight saddle I saw it . Laying there with it's head on his paws was an old coyote it would look at me for awhile then move it's head slightly to his left and down the road then back at me . I watched him for 30 or 45 minutes as he just did the same thing over and over again . He wasn't excited or showing any fear as if he thought that I hadn't seen him . I decided it was time so I slowly got ready and made the shot he was less then 75 yards from me . I made my way over to him knelt down beside him and looked down the road the way he had been looking . In a small grassy opening about 200 yards down hill , there was some dirt piled up in front of a hole . The den he had been watching all along . Him and the 8 pups went for a long trip they ended up going to a school in Boulder for some zoology students to clean their bones and reconstruct the skeletons as part of their studies. Did you know that coyote have 42 teeth when they are adults ? [/QUOTE]
