Fucking coyotes killed my BIL/SIL's dog this morning in Chino Hills.
We have at least 1 pack in our neighborhood. We live at the base of the hill which boarders open land. Have seen coyotes coming out of people's yards. My boys go out when they hear them at night with strong lights just to see if they can find them.
Had 2 instances where the yote killed something in the front yard.
Our friend had his yellow lab lured out of the yard by a female coyote. He chased his lab through the field and got him back without any issues that night. For the next while the yotes would come back and try to get a repeat. Finally we were able to shoot the female one night around 1 am. She came knocking and tripped the motion detector we set up about 50 yards from the the house his light went on and hers went out.

So a few years ago I was walking my dog,I was coming down the trail to the top left of the pic towards the neighborhood.
There was a jogger girl coming from the street on the bottom of the pic,the culdisack.
My dog starts going ape shit at the end of her leash looking at (what I thought at first) was the jogger.Unusual for her because she likes people,females especially.
Then I notice behind the jogger girl a coyote,trotting along about 100-150 feet behind the girl.
I know it's said coyotes don't normally attack people,adults anyway,but it sure looked to me like he was considering it.
So I start yelling at the girl,she doesn't hear me,she's got ear buds on listening to music.
I start yelling more,jumping,waiving trying to get this chicks attention.Didnt work,and the coyote is gaining ground on her.So I did the only other thing I could,unleash the dog.
Daisy the Doberman was about 45 feet from this girl when she looked up a little and see's 90lbs of Doberman Pinscher at a full run headed what seemed to her right at her.
The chick sort of stepped back a step then just froze.
Imagine the look of relief as well as WTF? as Daisy streaked past her and disappeared in a cloud of dust into that tree line in the ravine at the bottom of the pic.
She never saw the coyote,it wanted nothing to do with the dog coming at it and ran.
That chick was pissed off...at me!
By this time I'm running up to her and she yells "what the fuck,man?"
I explained what was going on and it probably wasn't a good idea for her to jog with the buds in her ears,she couldn't hear shit and she was lucky it was one coyote and not some dirtbag or something.
We were still 50 feet apart at that point,Daisy came trotting up to her,gave her a quick sniff,licked her leg once and came to me.
Never seen that chick jogging out there again.
Would that coyote have tried to take a bite of the jogger?I honestly don't know,but it sure looked like it might happen.
Yes. Donkeys are the best watch dog you can have. They are very protective and will run off or even kill a intruder. We have two
Jack and radar. Very low maintenance [emoji106][emoji202]
absolutely it would have. They will attack little kids and humans ,its recently been reported that they have. One guy was walking his dog at night and was attacked by a pack of them. They are like rats and keep on multiplying . Friggin wild fish and game and seacca tells me oh no they wont they are harmless and hungry and that there is no problem of them multiplying out of control???. Morons...
good thing you did that for that girl. If anything you scared that yote so it thinks twice next time...
I think a mountain lion will eat a coyote,but beyond that they have nothing above them besides man to keep their populations in check.
That of course is here in so Cal,other parts of the country have wolves.They will flat destroy a coyote.
Too bad that chick didn't see things that way,she thought I was some sort of cooky guy.
I soo wish my dog would have had a go-pro on her that day.Would have showed her just how close she was to potentially losing some of her ass.

Sell the fur.I was going to call Az Game and Fish, and/or the MVSO to see what the law said about shooting them, BUUUTTT, that would just alert them that I might be shooting them anyway...Which I will if given the chance... I don't know about stacking them up along the fence though, maybe just take them out in the desert for buzzard food....

...wife and I were armed to the teeth and ready to rumble.
You don't let em wander around in your yard do you?
If you live in a area plagued with coyotes and looking for a dog. I would get a Presa Canario. Be able to fend for itself against a pack.

Makes me wonder if our Mountain Lion is still around. When we first moved in to our property up against the Tonto National forest 3 years ago you never heard or saw Yotes up by us. I know they were around but you never heard/saw them. Go down the hill and you would see them around quite a bit. I always thought it was strange that we never saw/heard them. Now you see them frequently and also hear them from time to time very close to our fenced yard. Who knows but possibly the ML moved on?????
The lion/s are there for sure. We chased one down camp creek wash off barlett dam rd while quail hunting. Also found a deer kill while quadding. The ranger in spur cross came across one on the trail eating a deer.
I have never seen one but really aren't looking for one.....lol We have a Bobcat den nearby the house also. Wonder how the Yotes and Bobcats get along You think the ML would cause the Yotes to move along?
They are Everywhere around my house. I see em and hear em all of the time...
You guys in CA realize it is NOT illegal to kill them? No tags required. There is no season. There is no limit! They are free game here in CA.
I'm scared of guns, but I heard this works well for those things.

It's a great varmint round. 200 yards with almost zero drop. It the right gun, it's Fucking deadly.
Guns make me nervous. But my daughter, she's a whole different story with that round. [emoji6]

We have cats around here for sure.
We've lived in the same house for going on 18 years,in that time I have seen exactly one.It was about 15 years ago,he jumped the road in front of my truck.He did quite literally jump the road,from orange grove across the road to another grove.Never touched asphalt.
Neighbors have reported seeing them out in those hills we walk our dogs in.
And,get this.One guy lives in a trailer out there,he's related to the family that owns and develops the area up here.He claims to on two different occasions he's seen a melanistic mountain lion.Not sure I believe him or not,but then,why would someone make up something like that?
Bobcats,never seen one myself but the neighbor on the corner has had a few encounters with them.He's got a bird bath out front they like to play in.
He's an iron worker and gets up early.Went to leave one morning and a bobcat jumped out of the bath.He said he wasn't sure which one of them was more scared shitless
This was reported yesterday. Bit a little girl in the neck. Neck is where they usually have their kill strike...

Yeah,that is interesting.We have walked out the front door and the bobcat was on our front porch....lol Scary as shit when I grabbed my phone to take a pic, moved forward and then he stopped and looked at me. I literally froze and he left....lol They shit all the time in our yard at night......
My pit and I walked around a corner one time when she was on leash and were about 20 feet from a beautiful fully grown bobcat. It turned and looked at us for about 10 seconds and my dog froze. She didn't move and the bobcat just turned and left. I am sure my pup was thinking....Holy shit....I ain't fuckin' with that cat
What is a melanistic cat/ml? A black cat?
I know they are saying the Mexican Jaguar will eventually make it to our area. Seems some animal rights or environmentalists are re-establishing territory so they can continue back to their original roaming areas in N America
Actually doesn't look like the US is participating in this:

I'm with you, get your kids especially Daughters to know there way around firearms.
This is my daughters first day getting used to the Glock 40. and the last day we ever shot at this area. Not only can she do well with rifles and hand guns, she also is a great trap shooter.
When she was 4 Madison and I were playing in the front yard of our house in Santa Barbara which is mid SB about a mile from the foothills. I walked up our driveway maybe 20 seconds and 20' from her which was way stupid, and as I'm walking back I look up and at the end of our drive way was a huge yote walking towards her. Lets just say Its not around anymore.
I might of posted this before in another yote thread but from that day lets just say I'm a huge fan of coyote mgmt, which in the right areas I practice regularly with the other pic.
Yeah,that is interesting.
Melanistic is pretty much the opposite of albino.
Reading the comments in that link,while science seems to think it's unlikely there's a lot of comments to suggest otherwise.
Maybe this guy by us is full of shit,I believe he likes to tilt the bottle a bit.
Then again,who knows for sure what he saw?Maybe there is one out there.
Fortunately there are very few trees out there in these hills.Its all speculation until one drops out of a tree on top of you.....lol

That link about the wolves is no joke.
It's been several years now but I believe it was Outlaw here on the board was talking about wolves in his area of NM.
The bus stop for the school kids is literally a cage,to prevent kids from being attacked/eaten.
As nasty as a coyote might be,they have nothing on a wolf.
No,I'm in Riverside Ca. West of March AFB out by Woodcrest/Lake Mathews area.We have a lot of trees and planted 9 more on our property :yikes
Are you in AZ?

We have bobcats around my house and LOTS of coyotes. I've seen a few bobcats mountain biking too, they are beautiful animals. Also ran up on a mountain lion biking many years ago. We sized each other up, I had a buddy with me fortunately, and someone on another bike riding up behind him scared him off. We were 15 feet from him, rode up on him as he was drinking at a creek in Marshall canyon where the stream crosses the trail. Never seen an animal move that quick and cover ground, he covered 100 yards in about 3 seconds I think.
