That'll just piss them off and possibly wound them. Nothing is more dangerous than a wounded animal.

i like in the mountains and like.. all my cats have died from being eaten by a coyote.....

Buy a compound bow it won't make noise.

You can buy high powered ones that can kill humans.
I got a few buddies that got alot of property and one
had a giant collection of guns including pellet/bbs and if they can kill a human obviously t can kill a coyote.

Is this in the sort of manner that "anyone can be killed with a spoon" type argument? If certain conditions are met (distance, "lucky" bounces after impact) I could see them being lethal. I wouldn't want to bank on them might killing a coyote, though. No need for the animal to suffer, either. I'd want a clean kill.

that's kinda sadistic... might as well just shoot it in the head from a distance rather than tempt it with meat and then shoot it without killing it instantly... shotguns are quite inaccurate, you might not get a headshot ._.

however, the pellet gun idea would work if you shot them from a place where they couldnt get you, like from inside with a nearly completely closed window.

Coyotes are shy animals and would flee from it. They flee from lights being turned on usually. Shoot near them or make the sound to scare htem off. Dont hurt it. Seriously. Killing animals that are doing no harm to you is absolutly retarded. Disturbing your sleep a bit and making your dogs irritated, but no harm. We're the ones who are taking up THEIR land. That they had first before we were there. Have atleast enough respect for the animals not to kill them or harm them to where they'd die in the wild. Theres many humane ways to keep them away from your property.
People who say to shoot the animal shave little to no respect for them and should be shot themselves. See how it feels to be driven out of the lands that they once lived because a "better" species of animal is taking over it, killing their prey, their territory, and polluting their waters.
Coyotes dont attack humans usually unless they're hungry enough, sick, or threatened enough. Same as wolves.

Throw a grenade.

LOL @ Triumph~

Poor Spirit! Does closing ur window help? That's why i never sleep with my windows open coz just normal birds piss me off in the morning...

That's my type of a suggestion. :cheeky:
