Does this coyote have mange?

[Power Pill]

My trail cam isn't the best quality, but his tail looks really bad.

 

[Trimmer 905]

Yep,no doubt.

 

[Mount Sweetness]

Yes, badly

 

[coldshot]

Yes he has mange, I used to think that this was a death sentence for these critters, but I think they can survive it, their some tough. I saw one in February with hardly a hair on him, I don't know if he made it till spring, but I thought he must be some tough to survive like that.

That is the new style of coyote they have been breeding with grey hounds and have less hair so they can run faster to get away from danger.Notice the sleeker look and faster appearance.

 

[Superbrad]

Nope..... just a furry whippet.....

 

[btabin]

Definitely don't look like a healthy coyote. Poor bugger probably covered head to toe with mites.

 

[Uisge]

Yes and a lead deficiency.

 

[X-man]

Putting that yote down would be a kindness.

What would be the ideal shot placement using a shotgun on a coyote? Biggest shot ive got on hand is #2 bird.

 

[coldshot]

Where ever you hit him, you won't have to worry about ruining the pelt!

Whatever you do, don't shoot him in the tail.

I have to disagree with everyone here...

That is obviously a Liberal girly man coyote who has been dogscaping.

He thinks it makes him more attractive to the female of the species, when in fact it just makes him look ridiculous to the other males.

Shooting him is a good idea.
