I have noticed there was an increase in coyote activity in the bush behind my place a week or so ago(I could here them making there various noises for extended periods of time). Yesterday after dinner me and the young lad were out for a quad ride and after checking our bush we did a perimiter check of my neighbours bush that backs on to my bush. On the south side I found a number of dead cats, some chewed on and some still hole so I am going to assume they were put there dead. Amongst them there were a few leg bones from what looks like a cow. Them a bit farther down I find this. There was also a nwe tree stand hanging in a tree about 50yrds away. It hasent been there long as a couple weeks ago I was by there and the pile was not. The bones were picked clean. I think I know who dumped them there but the issue I have is that it is not there property and the landowner has given me sole permission to hunt, use and police his property as this farm has no buildings and his home farm is a 20km or so away. I am still not decided how I am going to handle this situation so I thought you guys might have some suggestions.

Leave a note on the treestand explaining who you ar eand that you are the caretaker.... if the activity persists go through the landowner to find and charge the individual....
 
Before you take any action, check with the landlord to make sure he hasn't given permision to anybody else. You don't want to embarrass yourself. Explain the situation and make sure he is behind you.
 
I would post the land "no trespassing" and "no hunting". After checking that
no one else is allowed in there but you and the owner.

Since the Ontario government got rid of the dead stock removal program, farmers have to pay for that from the their own pockets.
The one farmer I know, just dumps the dead cows in a secluded spot
on his own farm...not on other people's property...
 
Take down the tree stand and leave it with the land owner. Leave a note. If he's allowed to be there, he'll be annoyed and go get it back. If he's not, well, then that's his problem.

Sounds like a great spot (tree stand) to hunt coyotes from..
Definately talk to the land owner before charges are laid for tresspass.. Its probably the farmer next door.
A chat with him might get you permission to hunt his land also, so being friendly is good.. :)
 
Not sure how things are done in your province, but im 95% sure that you need the land owners permission to bait animals, as to not attract unwanted visitors. This could get serious for the intruder. Please follow up as I am curious the out come.

be careful what sign you put up. maybe no unauthorized hunting?

I dunno about that...here in AB you can post your land whatever you want and still hunt it, or allow others to hunt it (so long as they have your permission, it doesn't matter if there are "no hunting" signs).

Regardless of signage, hunting on private land without permission is illegal, hunting on private land with permission is legal. Signage is just to deter people from asking before they get a "no".
