Ask your mom if it was a crazed man who attacked the girl and bit her, but he looked like David Hasselhoff (or what ever male is considered good looking these days), should the police still not intervene? "oh it's okay, he's cute" :rolleyes:

It's not about cute and cuddly, it's about the bottom line; Public safety

Ya me too. She doesnt get it though

Total face palm on this with her. Im gonna be out soon to see what I can do about some of the yoties running around the farm. Wolves are starting to become a problem as well
 
This has been around since 2009 but I just saw it last night. I never though a yote would pester a full grown man. Incidents are on the rise.

You mean you aren't? . But on a serious note so lets say the little girls dad had shot that yote and didn't have a hunting licence. Would the MNR be crawling up his @ss?.

I doubt he would get charged with anything by the MNR considering the coyote was attacking the kids, at least I would hope not.

The police would likely have some questions for him though.

Agree but we are seeing a totally different breed of coyote down here. Bigger, bolder, running in packs, eating their own and zero fear of man.
Not to be trusted for a minute Not anything like I have seen over the years including out west. take care

Clearly coyotes are solitary animals.

They seem to be getting over populated in some areas of the country for some reason? Must have been a bumper crop of coyotes these last several years? Or maybe there's less hunters in the field? Anyhow when food becomes more competitive, animals will adjust. I wonder how the coyotes are effecting rabbit and game bird populations? New born deer, too?

But I guess the environmentalists and animal rights people don't want to think about that part as they keep trying to stop hunting.
 
Ontario, south west of Ottawa. Admittedly, they're usually by themselves or paired up, but its not that uncommon to see them in larger groups.
 
That video posted, I have never seen a coyote groomed that clean or smooth ever in my life.



So,

Some advice from my CGN fellowship on the "repelling" of coyotes on my property.

I live west GTA and back onto a green belt. We have deer all the time, possums, foxes, all sorts of critters.

The fox population doesn't bother us too much and generally keep their distance.

But in the mornings I routinely run into the coyotes either going to work or coming home.

And its not one or two, Ive seen a group of around five one morning.


So the other night I heard howling, like a loud argument, with all the windows closed in the house. I sat on the porch for a but with my son, and figured it was not dogs, and it wasn't wolves.

The coyotes are getting closer and they are yelping more and more. Last night I saw one finally cut across the neighbours back yard from the green belt.

Im not a a hunter. I know nothing about it or the laws around hunting.

What are my rights as a non-licenced hunter regarding the putting down of coyotes once they come onto my urban property?

My son is 4, and there are many other young children who play out late at night on our closed street.

Ive instilled in my wife and kids when we moved here, that if anything comes from the greenbelt that looks like a dog, get into the house. If Im home get me, and fetch my shotty.

I have no problems at all having to cull the local coyote population. I also, despite whatever laws may exist, will do what I have to to protect my family.

I called animal control locally here, left a message, but then got put through to parking control since they are part of the same by-law number.

Subsonic .22s maybe?
 
I was going to post a seperate thread about this but i'll just add to this one. I work for a small logging company in SE Ontario. The deer have yarded up like crazy this year where i am cutting. I see them in multiple numbers on a daily basis. This in turn has attracted a small wolf pack to the area. Yesterday morning as I was limbing the trees i fell the night before, when i shut the saw off i could hear them howling (not yipping howling). I walked over the hill in the direction i heard them from AND THEY WERE RIGHT THERE!!!!!! 200 yards at the bottom of the hill i was standing on a pack of 5. black, white, and three blondish greys were all staring up the hill at me. I hollered at them while firing up the saw and revving it to the nutz. They all took off to the SW of me. 15 min. later while limbing ( hadn't started falling trees yet), i looked up and noticed the black one creeping towards me from the west at about 100 yds, once again hollered and it took off. about 10 min after that the skidder finally was up and going and had made it back to me. I frantically told our operator about what had just happened and i knew he was kind of skeptical. as we got the chokers hooked up and he started to pull ahead with the skid, clark ranger f667 by the way very loud, keep this in mind, all i hear is " there goes one there!!!". one of the blondes was running away from me and the skidder at about 50, 60 yrds. had one more encounter after that, the whole pack was howling over the hill again so i fell a great big maple that was about 3 feet in width at the trunk, wich made a lovely CRASH when it hit the ground (took out a few on the way down to). never heard or saw from then again until close to dark then i heard more distant howls.

all I could think of all day was how awsome it would be if i could add "wolf with a chainsaw" to the moose with a wiper blade thread:D my theory is that they had a deer killed close by and thought that maybe i was going to try and take it. perhaps this coyote had a puppy dog or kitty stashed away nearby and was defending it. Although the fact that it approached the officer as well means it was obviously not right. I lived in oakville 7 years ago and the coyotes were bad then, especially in bronte near the refinery.

Anyways needless to say i started taking a rifle to work again. I have a PAL, small games, and the gun is unloaded, encased, and never out of my sight, if i move down a hill i move it and my backpack down with me so i can see it. If this is not legal please let me know so i can sharpen my machete instead. sorry but chainsaws run out of gas at some point, and the fuel is on the skidder, plus it's a long walk in and out.
 
sorry but would also just like to mention that the guy in the video is a dumba**. I would have kicked that coyote so hard in the nose that he would never be able to smell again. gee lets stand there and let it bite my boot, hmm ok now lets run away from it triggering any animals instinct to chase... dumba**.

Working where you do, couldn't you apply for a wilderness carry permit?

possibly, I was unaware we even had such a permit in Canada. the last thing i want is to be doing something illegal, but I'm not going into the woods defenseless after i had to shoo wolves away 4 times in 1 hour. I really don't see the permit necessary but if that's what it takes then why not apply right?. besides it's just a cooey bolt action repeater .22 i'm not hunting, i'm working. I only intend to use it if it is from point blank. keep in mind it is unloaded and encased so by the time i get to it, get it out of the case, get it loaded, The wolf is either right on top of me or long gone.
 
A wilderness carry permit is for carrying restricted handguns in the forest for protection. Available only to people who make their living in the forest.
