I've had coyotes rip a red fox apart one time . It took 67 stitches to sew that pelt back together . On a another occasion i was checking traps one night around 9 and seen cat eyes shining back at me when I got close to the traps and it ran off but what I didn't know was I had caught a tom and the other one had been fighting it and killed it .

It was a first for me as far as coyotes goes but i have had some coons and skunks eaten.
 
I made 5 new sets yesterday and ran a 20% catch ratio . The set I used was a walk through set similar to a walk through for bobcats . He was caught on the border where two packs share territory. The bait manufacturer was from the J.M SMUCKERS COMPANY . I think it was the dominant male out seeing if anyone has crossed over in his territory.

Man, I always pick up dogs when it snows! With these super cold temps, they outta be hungry! I had plans to remake sets during to the rain last week and get new sets I. The ground this weekend but I have been spending the night at UT NICU with my brother in law. His daughter was born Friday night and she had some problems. Coyotes will be there when she gets to come home though!
 
I tripped all my land sets Sunday morning didn't want to fight the deep freeze . I will continue on the beaver sets with a 72 hour check on them . I can tell you that it wasn't fun wading yesterday afternoon but I did pick up a good otter haven't skin it yet still frozen solid. Did manage to pick up 7 coons on Saturday's check .

Love waking up to check cameras with tight chains! ⛓️
This set is/was a trench set with Hiwatha valley and gusto. Lots working against me on this ones. Trap dug up 2 weeks ago. Then it snowed and I had something fire the trap. Remade set 2 weeks ago with my last bit of wax sand and ended up springing the set so I had to make do with what I could. Plus the gate laying in the ground is new. It had been upright for months before the last snow. Basically just saying that sometimes, leaving a set in the ground pays off!

Nice catch. Congratulations. With all this snow and cold think scent just lingers. Got to let that steel hunt.
