Trigg3r,
For many years, I hunted all that wheat fields east of town, over 3000 acres.I shot many coyotes out of that area. About 2 years ago the city of Erie annexed all of that and made it no hunting. Why? Who knows. They can't support what they got. I talked to the city and the Police Department. No one wanted to give me permission to keep hunting. So I stopped, It wasn't a month after I stopped hunting it that the first lady got bit.
Not long after that the DOW called me and asked me if I would continue to hunt out there . They would see if they could get me a "special" permit from the city. The City even declined their course of action. So it's not the DOW's fault they tried but their hands are tied by the city's.
Now it seems like an every day deal out there. Mark my word...There WILL be a kid bit walking out to the High School in the future. I would suggest you go to City hall and talk to them about it. You can get in trouble for discharge of a firearm in city limits. Other then that your kind of SOL.![]()
Thanks Gander. Ill got to city hall this week and ill let u know if they grant me permission to hunt. Now im not sure if this will even be considered as my property is annexed into Erie. I got very unlucky since the guy next to me is not annexed. Oh well, but it suck to hear about these coyote attacks on humans. Seems like there were a few last fall and becoming more of an issue.
In order to hunt yotes in Colorado, you need a small game licence AND a furbearers permit, the combined cost of both is $42.
You do not need tags to hunt yotes, and there is no bag limit or season end. It is open year round.
Here's the small game brochure :http://wildlife.state.co.us/NR/rdonl.../smallgame.pdf
I spent my Obama Stimulus money on a GUN!
I bought some traps this spring after seeing all the coyote pictures on my trailcams and seeing over 5 this year while hunting. Also, there is a study going on right now in South Carolina where they are finding that over 70 of the fawns that they have GPS collared, have been killed by coyotes. Does anyone here trap coyotes and have any tips to offer? _______=== XRumer 5.0 Palladium RULEZ! ===
Well I can tell you none of us trap here anymore. They outlawed that in our state in the 1990's.![]()
Maybe he's talking live traps. Worthless anyways. What would you do when you catch one? Drive it over to someones else's land or near their land and let it go?
