i HOPE i DONT OFFEND ANY ONE HERE IF I DO I APOLOGIZE. bUT THE FACTS ARE THAT CYOTES HAVE BEEN HERE IN NY FOR YEARS AND YES THEY ARE ONE OF OUR TOP PREDATORS, BUT I WILL TELL YOU I HAVE BEEN TRAPPING THEM FOR SOME TIME NOW AND THERE ARE NOT AS MANY AS YOU GUYS THINK THERE ARE.WHEN YOU HERE A PACK OF THEM AT NIGHT IT IS MOST LIKELY ONE OR TWO ADULTS USUALLY TRAINING THE PUPS THAT IS WHY YOU HERE THE SHORT YIPS AN LOCATION CALLS. I FIND IT AMUSING THAT GUYS SEE ALL OF THESE CYOTES WHEN THEY ARE IN THE WOODS KILLING DEER AND TURKEYS THEN YOU TAKE UP THE SPORT OF PREDATOR HUNTING AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE YOTES JUST ARENT THERE LIKE YOU THOUGHT THEY WERE. DONT GET ME WRONG THEY NEED TO BE IN CHECK AND TRAPPING AND CALLING IS A GREAT AND FUN WAY TO DO THAT. BUT TRUTHFULLY THERE ARE NOT AS MANY YOTES AS EVERY ONE THINKS THERE IS.
