You can drink 'em pretty,but,you can't drink 'em skinny.
Had it a couple of times also but I have never had crow. I would say that it is only slightly better than raccoon. For some reason, raccoons have a weird fishy taste for me but I heard that it is still way better than skunk. Apparently a skunk smell is in its meat? If I really have to eat a coyote again, I would look around and see if I could club a quilled pig first. Apparently a porcupine's meat is sweet, could be eaten raw and is considered a survival food by the MNR. Me want to try!
A few years ago, there was a restaurant in Edmonton that was caught using coyote meat, so maybe a few of us have actually tried coyote without knowing it in our take-out or delivery orders.... tastes like chicken.......
Not using it, they were ticketed for having uninspected meat (which was a coyote carcass) in their cooler. The subsequent media poo-sho pretty much caused the guys that owned that restaurant to close their doors and leave town.
The inspector was very clear at the time, that they were not serving the stuff to customers. But stuff like that (facts) isn't near as much fun as pounding on what amounts to a racist dog-pile (ooh, unintentional pun, sorry!).
I've seen some game recipe books with Coyote recipes. Got better things to do with my time than skin one, let alone eat it. Crows gotta eat too!
Ya don't have to. All you gotta do is drink yourself willing! LOL!
As you center your crosshairs on a coyote, remember this: That particular coyote IS going to die. Maybe this winter, maybe next, but it WILL die. Maybe it’ll bleed out in a ditch after getting hit by a car, fall through the ice and drown, freeze, starve, disease or infection. Or... at the end of a gun. But in each and every scenario, his carcass will provide the same function - feeding the critters, bugs, and soil. You’re intervention behind the gun won’t change WHAT happens to him, just WHEN.
Now, that said, if the goal is population control, you have to have a specific and small area you’re working with CONSISTENTLY. They will repopulate hard and fast the moment you stop. Hop on Amazon and grab a copy of Coyote America. Great read, and incredible insight into the only species that humans have consistently tried to eradicate, while populations flourish despite our efforts.

Interesting. Might have to give it a try this year.
I've eaten Coyote on more than one occasion. If you can get past the smell of skinning them out and soak it overnight in baking soda, to tenderize it, the taste and consistency is pretty good.
I have an Oriental friend that will take a half dozen Coyote carcasses each year, if they're fresh. He ate a lot of dog in his youth, in the country he was raised. Now, he has three Jack Russel Terriers that he treats like their his children.
His wife invited my wife and I to dinner and mentioned that it would be a special dinner, because I had provided the main dish. Coyote. I didn't tell my wife what she was going to be eating.
It was explained to me that the Coyote meat had been soaked overnight in water and baking soda to tenderize it, then cut up into strips about a centimeter thick, soaked in onions, ginger and Tien Sin until just before it was time to cook. The Coyote and spice mixture was done in a WOK, with a bit of peanut oil and salt.
It was delicious.

Yeah, the female breeders are the key. If all you do is knock off the males and pups... the females will just pump out bigger litters.
Shooting coyotes doesn't get rid of them. If anything, it creates more coyotes. If shooting them was an effective way to control their population then coyote numbers would have plummeted like wolf numbers did in decades past when predators were shot on sight without prejudice - instead the coyote expanded as the wolf was shot out.
If you want the pelts, blast away! If your only motivation is to help the deer herd, there are many far more effective things to do. (btw bears are devastating on fawns, but you've got limited tags on those).
