I want to get a small dog for coyote hunting?

My house is small ani can’t have a big retriever or lab?what is the smallest possible dog that could kill a coyote?

Sounds like hundreds of dogs yapping all together?

I know all our neighbor so I know theirs not a big enough concentration of dogs to make such a noise. but I went outside and all the sudden it sounds like hundreds of little dogs are barking/screaming, and its coming over the hill – all from one place – from our neighbors house. Coyotes? hunting dogs? what do you think?
i’m in a small neighborhood with the houses placed about 400 yards apart out in the country.

Im looking for a place to coyote hunt on private ground in Colorado?

Me and a friend are going to be heading to Colorado in two weeks. We both really enjoy coyote hunting, but in my area alot of people run dogs and the coyotes are scared of everything. We both respect the outdoors and have many years of hunting experience and would be more than happy to cure any coyote problems that anyone may have. (or give it my best shot anyway).

Child sex slaves??????

I just posted this question, but it was in the wrong section and I didn’t know how to change it.

I was watching MSNBC (I think) the one with Chris Hansen, he does “To Catch a Predator“.

Anyway, It was a documentary called, “Children For Sale“. It was the saddest thing I think I’ve ever seen. It was about children in Cambodia as young as 5 years old being sold for sex to tourists and Natives. I mean dozens of different brothels with dozens of really YOUNG children being sold for sex. It was unbelievable, I can not even wrap my brain around it! I can not believe there is a market somewhere for that and there is barley any attempt made to protect these children. I am F***ing furious, I don’t think I have cried so hard or so long in forever. I haven’t seen anything like that and I seriously feel like my heart is broken. I feel an overwhelming need to do something, somehow. The thing is, I don’t know how to start. I don’t know what I could do. Does anyone have any ideas???
Thank you to those who are taking my question seriously! I know that I can not save the world, I know there are other things going on in the world that are just as horrific if not more so. I know I get really worked up over these things and I know I can only make a small ping, but I would have to say it is better than being cold and heartless all together and just giving up on humanity.

The Lighter Side of Hockey?

After a news conference to announce the sale of the Nashville Predators was postponed: “For some unknown reason, the businessmen buying the team were unable to contact each other on their Blackberries.”

Today’s trivia: The Denver Post pointed out this week that Avalanche forward Paul Stastny reached the100-point mark in his 99th career NHL game. Stastny’s father, Peter, reached the century mark in 73 games, while his uncles, Marian and Anton, needed 82 and 95 games respectively. If the Stastnys were to put together a family band, I wonder if they would call it Peter, Paul and Marian.

Is it just me or does defenceman Bryan McCabe of the Toronto Maple Leafs have more giveaways than a cheesy FM radio station?

What’s the big deal about those nude pictures of Jiri Tlusty turning up on the internet? It’s not like the Maple Leafs defence isn’t undressed every night.

A comment heard in living rooms around Chicago this week as the Blackhawks lifted the blackout and televised a home game for the first time on Comcast Sportsnet: “We have an NHL team?”

Part two, murder poems, c/c?

If you haven’t read the first, then this wont be very clear to you, so i’d suggest you do that.

Colder than marble flooring he’s sleeping on
discovered before the rich guests had gone.
Signal for bloody tragedy, a bellowed swear
suspicions began to surface from the despair.

Authorities called into the extravagant estate
to observe a man who prematurely met his fate.
Lantern light unveiled the neck, brutally slashed.
Clumsy knife work equalled the body, gashed.

As the cadaver was taken away by the medical van
gossip spread like the plague, who killed the man?
Every ones mind was whirring, drowning in doubt
except for the silken clad woman, on her way out.

The guests had described a guest who’d left before
the shroud like waistcoat ensured seeing no more.
Largely ignored, the assassin had become a backdrop,
before fleeing the scene, having to time to stop.

The next day newspaper sales shot to the sky
with the unknowing people wondering “why”.
Only two people held the secret, locked away,
disappeared, before predator became prey.
Iano for the first time you’ve actually made me laugh, congratulations! I’m sure that wasn’t your ulterior motive though was it?

Nancy, Dallas, thank you, I didn’t want it to move in the direction that it was like watching someone play the game of cluedo!
Thanks everyone, NANCY YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH I JUST COKED ON MY APPLE JUICE AT YOUR AVATAR.

Tee hee, i’m quite enjoying writing these.
Oooh I meant chocked there sorry

Need some expert RES advice – When a ‘couple’ of turtles turns out to be 4, and nothing you were told is true?

I admit it- I’m a sucker…
A friend of a friend of a friend of a friend was re-homing a ‘couple’ of RES, and idiot that I am, I agreed to take them- BUT ONLY they were acclimated to an outdoor pond. I was assured me that this would be fine, but (here’s a shocker) umm, not so much. Here’s what I ended up with:

1. a “couple of turtles” turned out to be 4: 3 females (about 6″ shell) & 1 male (4″).
2. The assumption they’d be fine outside was apparently based on wishful thinking and a burning desire to dump these guys on someone else.
3. They refuse to eat turtle pellets or vegetation (I’ve tried romaine, zuchini, squash and dandilion green ) but they will eat worms. Getting some feeder fish today…
4. Did I mention they were ‘re-homed’ 3 months ago? At a garage sale.
5. They showed up at my work in a cardboard box with an almost empty can of turtle food. Nothing else. Not even names.

So now what? I need both a short term and a long term solution- payday isn’t for another week, so WHATEVER I do, it can’t cost more than $100 today.

So the big question:
WITHOUT risking their health- does anyone have any ideas how to house them in the existing outdoor pond? They are TOTALLY unprepared to hibernate- in fact, I doubt they’ve ever been outside. I can’t imagine trying to heat the pond for them over the winter- even if I could afford the electricity (which I doubt), I don’t know if it’s possible- it’s about 10′ in diameter, bowl-shaped, poured concrete, about 2 1/2 foot deep at its lowest point. I live in the Seattle area, so temps will dip to the mid 30′s at night for the next 6 months. We probably won’t see the sun again until May, so basking will also be an issue. The filter system is built in; a basic re-circulating pump with a filter at the top of the waterfall and at the base of the pump so it can’t be removed. Unless someone can think of something I haven’t, I think they need to be indoors for the winter.

Which brings me to my next problem.
I have NOTHING to house them indoors, and my Craigslist search for anything that could possibly work was unsuccessful. At best, I have a kiddie pool (it’s shaped like a turtle, so that’s something….) but these guys should have a minimum of 240+ gallons of water, plus basking areas. I have a big house, so room isn’t a problem, but I don’t even have a heater or a filtration system…

Somebody has to have an idea. These guys aren’t going anywhere- they’re here and they’re staying. By next spring they’ll be in turtle heaven with a pond, grass, basking ledges, sand to lay eggs and 2 watchful beagles to protect them from predators, but it’s not spring now.

I’ve thought of stock tanks, old bathtubs, rubbermaid containers- nothing seems like it will have enough room, and I couldn’t find any of them, anyway. And a filtration system for that many turtles (and that much water) is out of my budget for at LEAST another 3 weeks. Do I use the pool and change the water daily? Sacrifice swimming room for clean water? It’s probably only 10″ deep filled to the top, but I can build basking areas around the pool and “fence” it in.

OK, fire away. But please- don’t tell me to call the humane society or to find them another ‘suitable’ home- I counted 25 turtles AND tanks on Craigslist today- most of them free. These 4 are staying right here. Just need some help making sure they’re OK
Thanks
Ok, regarding the suggestion of ‘release’… They’re not a native species. RES are considered a invasive species here, due 100% because of this very thing. Eastern and Western pond turtles are native- the closest natural occurring population of RES to Seattle is Kansas. Releasing an animal into a habitat that it DOESN’T belong in creates a multitude of problems: if they ARE able to adapt, there is added compitition put on the native species for resources, which ultimately results in their extermination by USFW. Most likely, however, they are unable to find needed resources or adapt to the environment and slowly starve to death. PLEASE, I beg you, NEVER suggest this. If you FIND an animal, leave it where it is, but if it has been bred in captivity or has been acclimated to humans- release spells death. Period. I hope I haven’t offended anyone, but I work at a wildlife rehabilatation Center, plus I have a degree in conservation education, so I promise you- this is the reality. Ot

how do i make a bow that is hunting worthey?

me and my friends r going on a hunting trip we just got our hunting permit and we all had a bet the person to make a kill withe there home made bow wins so please help video links are apreateated

I know nothing of hunting but want to learn. What’s a good way to start?

My dad never really took me out to do anything as a kid, and now that I’m married I would love to get into an outdoor hobby, and hunting would be great because I love the woods, camping, and venison. I have no experience firing a rifle or bow (I believe mainly bow hunting is allowed in the state of NJ where I live, but I could be wrong). If there are any books or videos someone could recommend I would appreciate it.

Hunting with Matthew’s Compound Bow (65 lbs bow pull)?

I got some good experience with bows, but this is my first time hunting with it. So is the 65 pound bow pull a 1 hit kill? I saw a video of Brock lesnar hunting white bulks with his matthews bow, he got 2 shots, but the first shot I think was in the legs.

We are in the car right now, using my iphone, waiting for my other friends, they got lost in the traffic.

questions on deer hunting?

I’ve used riffles and hand guns most my life, but never used them to hunt so I have no idea.

I’m interested in hunting deer, A bow looks like it would be the most fun to learn and develop skills plus it seems the most challenging to get the deer. What I’m wondering is, will an arrow take down a deer fairly quickly, follow up with a 9mm the the head?
I’ve watched a ton of hunting video’s and it seems the deer don’t die right away. I don’t see hunters that attempt head shots, why is this? If you shot a deer in the heart or lungs do hunters finish it off with a follow up shot.
I dislike it when they are injured and kicking around.
ahahahahahhahhahhahahhahha !!!!!!! I just got out of the military! How you think I have all that
experience with weapons. Only a ignorant, inexperienced tards like you make ridiculous statements like that. Oh you care about the innocent animals, well you have better dawn well be a vegetarian to make that statement. If you eat meat your worse than a hunter as a hunter can appreciate what he kills, not just pickup piece of meat at the super market, and not even think about the cow that was killed for your life.

Would a Mossberg 100 ATR in a .243 Win be a good choice for hunting deer and coyote in North Georgia?

I live in North Georgia, and don’t have much money in the rifle budget. I want a rifle big enough to kill deer cleanly, but not so big that it will destroy the pelts on coyotes that I hunt. I don’t live far from a rifle range, so practice is not a problem. I want to get it before summer so I can get accurate with it before the season starts in the fall.

I’m not interested in paying someone to hunt on their land as Texas is host to a vast ammount of public hunting land. It would be great if someone could help direct me to some decent public hunting grounds for feral hogs.

Is there any good sites to download MP3 coyote sequences that are proven to work?

I have downloaded some sequences and all that happens when I play them is coyotes howl in the distance and don’t come in. They only howl for about 30 to 60 seconds and stop. I stay very still and nothing. I try to keep calling for about one hour and still nothing. Are they on to me? What MP3 calls will work best in northern Utah in the desert? Please Help

Coyote Huning questions?

I live in SW Virginia. Some people on the land I hunt are saying coyotes are howling at night and I have seen a few myself as well as leaving a deer carcass in the field and the next day being on the other side dismantled. I have just recently bought a rabbit in distress and primos double whammy coyote call. I want to start coyote hunting. I have a spotlight and a 22-250 that I know my way around. What would be the best times to hunt them?(sundown, midnight, etc.) How would I go about hunting them?(setup,calling sequence and frequency) Does anyone have any other info I should know besides this? Thanks!

ok heres an idea for all people wanting to know about electronic coyote calls?

ok heres what you do… get an mp3 player or an ipod (which is what i use) and then go to varmintal website and download the calls he has plus the calling sequences, then go to gander mountain and get a calling speaker that they have set up for their preditor hunting electronic calls and just plug it into your ipod, go out into the field and play it, it perfect won’t cost you more than $60.00 compared to a $250.00 system at hunting stores, it rocks and i’ve killed alot of em that way

Going coyote hunting tomorrow, witch of these calls should I use in the area Im hunting?

Wich of these free calls that I downloaded from www.varmintal.com would have the best results in Northern Utah in February? Are the coyotes mateing? Are the pups leaving the den?

Last time I went out I used the 16 min sequence on varmintals site. I had coyotes howling and barking in the distance but they did not come in. I think they knew I was there. So I camouflaged my gun, bought coon urine scent cover, and a cotton tail rabbit decoy. I’m going to go try again tomorrow, but I want to make my own calling sequence using the free calls on www.varmintal.com. What whould be the best and how much time should I leave between each call?

P.S. If you have time please listen to some of the calls and see if they are good or if they are a waist of time. They have success stories on the site so I have hope that the mp3 will work for me. And let me know if the calls in the 16 min sequence are good for my area and if there is enough time between each call. (I think it is like 2 min salience)

Thank you very much

help with boar hunting please?

i am going boar hunting in tennessee with my dad. i am going to use my 30-30 and he is going to use his 12 Gauge sabot shotgun or maybe share my rifle.

i have been trying to find things about hunting wild boar and i can’t find much. i think they are considered dangerous game because i have heard that they will attack people. so are they?

and i was also wondering if i need to shoot them in the head or behind the shoulder like most other game animals. i am planning on getting a razorback or a wild russian boar. hopefully a mature male (obviously)

this is also my first time hunting wild boar and the biggest thing i have killed was a 7 point mature buck (i haven’t been hunting for too long so no comments on my 7 pointer).

were also planning on stalking the animal in the woods.

are there any tips or info we should know before we go?

i was also wondering how boar is scored?

What is a good Christmas present for a 14 year-old boy that likes to hunt?

It’s my husband’s younger cousin who lives in Oklahoma. I think he hunts deer, wild turkey and wild hog. Is there any kind of hunting gadget or something in the $20 range?
Some good ideas, thank you. He has already been hunting for years and has taken the hunter safety course. And he only hunts with his dad who is extremely careful.

Good caliber for home protection/hunting sidearm?

Just wondering about your thoughts on whether I should go with a .40 S&W or .45. Here in Oklahoma, wild hogs have become rampant and I don’t feel safe going in to the woods in the dark with just a bow and knife (I do have a concealed carry permit). I know the 10mm or .357 mag (or bigger) would be the best for hogs, but I’m wanting a semi-automatic that I would enjoy shooting recreationally, have reasonable access to ammo, and use as a home defense weapon. I’m leaning towards the .40, but just wondering if this would be adequate. What do you think? Thanks.
I probably should have been more specific. I’m not hunting hogs, just worry about running across a sow and her babies. I know this is slim, but you never know.

How to make an opening scene on youtube?

Does anyone know how to make these or what program you need.

To catch a predator/solicitation of a minor? Few questions..?

I watched Dateline’s(?) show called To catch a predator recently… and I wonder if they could just catch the guys before they show up at the house.

It would make the job of the officers easier, I think. I just wonder what all has to be done/said in order for their to be action taken. I understand what sexting is.. sending graphic images/videos etc. That’s obviously something that could be acted on by law enforcement without the guy trying to meet the girl.

I know that laws vary from state to state as well… but I wonder what generally has to be said/done — the minimal, before charges can be pressed. Wouldn’t it be better to catch them right away, or at least issue a serious warning? In pondering about all this, I can’t help think about Orwell’s 1984 … thought-crime. Just wondering where the line is drawn and where it should be.. but I think a slight sacrifice of privacy is worth protecting people over.

how to report online predator?

Predators hunting during the day?

When you watch wildlife shows you see a lot of predators such as lions that hunt during the day. Often they hunt herd of wilderbeast that number in the hundreds of thousands.

Wouldn’t it be easy pickings if they hunted at night when these animals were sleeping? It seems like a lot of work the way they stalk and chase them during the day.

Did anyone read the Sports Illustrated article about hunting?

It was supposedly about how the decline of hunting is changing the natural order of predator and prey. It tells about 2 guys who venture out deep into the Alaska tundra without so much as a penknife for protection and are horrified when 2 wolves snarl at them. The article then shows cutzie photos of kids and families joining quail shooting organizations and other pseudo patriotic blow bambi away propaganda as if hunting were the most caring and wholesome thing since apple pie and absolutely necessary to restore order in the universe. I was both appalled and impressed by the articles extremely shrewd psychological manipulation. What do you think?

another predator and prey question…?

ok, so the other day my husband and i were watching a hunting show (it comes on between my fishing shows and i was too lazy to change the channel) They were hunting reindeer in FInland… very old school, very cool.

half the hunters had cross bows, the other half had guns

my husband and i got into a discussion about their weapons of choice. HUbby is more pro bows, and i, oddly enough, was more pro guns. My theory being that a gun will more likely kill the animal faster saving it from dying slow and in pain. DH said the bow was better cause it’s more “natural”, more like the hunter gatherers would have used (had spears been an option he would have picked those)

So we talked about how we, as humans, have a special bond with animals seeing as how we as humans, are both predator and prey, we kill and would be killed thus making us able to sympathize with both the predator and the prey… and that as predators we just want the kill, but as prey we don’t want the pain that goes with it…

anyways… i know none of this is parenting related… and i don’t care… i just want to know who you agree with… are cross bows better than guns when it comes to hunting?

hunter parents… do your children hunt and would you allow them to use different methods and/or weapons (hate calling them that when hunting, but unsure what else to use) or are you only gun users?
and also, do you celebrate your kill and the life it has given for you, or is it just another dead meal (assuming you eat what you hunt)?
