[QUOTE="DSheetz, post: 3031715, member: 91783"] In the early 80's I got asked to take care of some coyotes that were eating new calves. I knew the pasture they were in and where the water holes were so hit them first looking for coyote tracks. The tracks were only on one of the water holes and were coming from one set of draws, so I went up those draws first and found a bunch of male and female tracks going up one draw as well as down the draw. I made my set up and let out my locator howls and barks. It was nearly 10:00 in the morning but a coyote showed after the first set and charged my way. It was the male as I suspected by the time of the day. I took him back to the truck then walked back up the draw and located the den. I took a couple of good-sized pups out of it then a couple of runts out of it. When I got thirteen pups out of it there were seven larger pups and six smaller pups, two age groups of pups. By this time, it was nearing 4:00 in the afternoon so I got set up close to the den in some sage brush and decided to use the injured puppy squeals, two coyotes jumped up out of a brushy hillside and froze I shot one and the other ran, so I gave some injured adult coyote squeals, it turned and started back I barked it stopped I got it shot. I got them both gathered up and they both were wet females one older one and one younger one from last year's pups. I got everything drug to the truck and loaded them then opened the females and checked them. sure, enough the lumps on the uterus's showed two different age groups and seven and six pups. It doesn't happen all of the time but sometimes the females that are kept to help with the pups does get bred as well. Sometimes there will be a young male kept to help with the pups and that can make getting all of the ones doing the killing. Snares take care of them usually. [/QUOTE]
