A coyote was taken in a prior year that weighed 70 lbs.  That ain't your typical western yote.

That ain't your typical coyote at all.

Me to but I think this one hanging out in by back yard and a couple of it's buddies  could be pushing it. Their tracks are huge.

Some of these bigger 50lb Coyotes look like they could take down a unsuspecting Hiker if they were Brazen enough. 

Not a hiker with a black belt though

What state are these from? If the picture doesnt include the yote on the scale very skeptical. Talked to many people who have trapped for many many years and its rare to get a yote over 50lbs.

Google "70 lb coyote" and you will get lots of info with verified weights.  These photos came from a hunting forum about big yotes.  Over 50 lbs is not so rare anymore.

Im talking ny, and you posted pics of a supposed 80 and 90 lb yote. 50lbs is still a very large coyote in ny.

You are supposed to follow up!   Although I never think about it either.

That's why I went to an AR from a bolt action! A quicker follow up shot.

You can post all of the exceptions to the rule you want, I think the recent coyote contest explains it all. Out of 118 (which is a large sample pool) the largest was 50lbs. Can one get bigger? Sure. 1 in 500? 1 in 1,000? That's hardly a rule, those XL's are an exception. People also get 7' tall, but that's also an extreme example of a human. I'm really not sure what is trying to be depicted here? I also agree with others, unless I know details and a scale picture I'm skeptical of most things, but then again noone can lie on the internet....

Did you skeptics read the article where it said it had a past winner in NY that weighed 70 lbs?

Follow the trends.  The average weights are going up each year.  

Has either one of you ever taken a coyote?
