the past 2 years I averaged about 45 a hide, prices pretty good, but most winters do not get many, 2 years ago we got lots of snow early and insulated the ground,they could dig all winter, I got 12 I think that winter, I usually only get 2-3 a year!

an .223 at 40 yards, he came in behind me and smelled and I had a quick shot it ripped the belly right open, it looks alot worse, if the coyote did nto ahve mange I could of easilly reapaired it without it even being noticed, nice even rip! the reason its all pulled out is he magaged to run into a little draw and by the time I caught up to him [30 seconds] he was chewing on his intestines and pulling them out!I know it does not sound nice but he only lived for 30 seconds after I shot him, if I did not shoot him he would of spent about 2 more weeks freezing to death, sufferign worse than can be imagined!
