Rob Posted July 7, 2012 Author Share Posted July 7, 2012 "buzzard's gotta eat too- same as worms". The Outlaw Josie WalesYes, but those predators are common in the more "southerly" located states. Around here, hawks take care of the carcasses the crow do not.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

Olivetroad Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 I know this story is fictional - no self respectin' Wile E. Coyote would lower himself to bite a Illinois Governor - they taste like prison food.

RowdyRebel Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 That's why I like it here on THIS end of the state. Dozer spied a coyote stalking us one morning as I pretripped the truck & alerted me to it's presence before laying down in driveway between me & the coyote and watching it like a hawk. As soon as we were on the road, I called over to the Sheriff's dept. and inquired what the law says about what I can or cannot do the next time I find myself in that situation."Just shoot it."OK. That's all I needed to hear. 1 Quote When approaching a 4-way stop, the vehicle with the biggest tires has the right of way!

fxfymn Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 A reporter in a near by town wrote that someone had watched a coyote kill over 20 fawns in a two week period. If that's true I'll take any coyotes you want to send here! I'm so frigging tired of the deer eating everything we plant.
