Coyote Meat?

On some level how are they eating differently or hygienically superior to a pig?
Nope, never ate them...just saying

Ever eaten a pig that had been on a fish diet? Just sayin'. They're pretty tasty on grain and garden scraps though. And give a pig some room and a pile of clean straw, they'll keep about as clean as any farm animal....
 
Annnnnnnd there's a good reason for that.

Seriously, have you ever been tempted to eat a dog? Outside of one region in China, I'm unaware of canids being a popular human food source.

My understanding was the Mayans raised a breed of hairless dog just for that purpose.
 
My mom has an old game meat cookbook that has a recipe for hip of wolf. Sure it wouldn't be much different. Not that I've tried either but each to their own. Never know when you might be in a situation and your THAT hungry lol
 
Not much besides birds will eat a coyote. I've seen other coyotes messing with the bones of others, and shot a sick mangey pup that was chewing on what turned out to be a old coyote leg and foot. We had a bit of a informal test where we had a dump-site for carcasses including bears and heads, hides and bones. Inevitably the bears would have everything cleaned up by the next morning, but they wouldn't touch a coyote. Ravens and eagles weren't so picky. If a bear won't eat it, I won't be trying any time soon.

I've been in China, and it is pretty popular fare in several areas of that country.
Additionally they eat dogs in several other Asian counties.

I'm not tempted to chow down on Coyote any time soon, but I'm sure some would savor it.

Last year I picked up youngest daughter from school right after a morning of coyote hunting ... The mother of one of here class mates ( Korean) asked if I saved any of the meat because it might be tasty.... I told her not this time.. Lol
 
Game cook books have Wiley recipes. Haven't, but I have the recipes. Like Stevebot-7 says, the thing's diet will vary and so will how it tastes. Wiley will eat most anything but carrion isn't preferred, as I recall.
You'll likely find Wiley has been around but you haven't seen him. Smart fellow, so he is. Knows how to make himself invisible.

Nope I have not. It was a bit of a loaded question I suppose, I've never hunted coyote before, and I'm a firm believer in if I search-it-out and shoot it, then I eat it. Essentially, is it worth taking a weekend to go out and find some coyotes. General consensus now is no.

Fair enough! I certainly apply that rule to game animals I hunt, but there's other reasons I hunt other types of animals. Coyotes are an invasive (in ON) and fur bearing species, so that's two good reasons to hunt them right there, apart from for food. I don't eat any of the crows I shoot either, and don't feel the least bit guilty about it, as there's a purpose to killing them apart from food value. As long as there's a good reason for killing other than for killing's sake, I think you're fine. Not suggesting what you should do or questioning your personal preferences, just one hunter's opinion FWIW.

Hmmmm. Perhaps an export development opportunity for Ontario then?
 
I know of 5 skinned yotes that were taken for the table. Our main concern was did he own a restaurant and no we did not ask for a recipe

Coyotes eat other coyotes. I have shot 3 from my house in the last 2 days and the last two where munching on the first one. They have also been munching on my cats. So if you are out my way shoot them. Plus the furs are worth something now it would pay for your shells to skin them.
