Yes u can. I c him quite often I think theres something man can't change or get ride of he's remindes me that nature is the 1 thing we can't control. Praise the Lord. And I have always been 1 to stick up for the underdog. I've skinned many a yote in my day but hey... one mourning I had one in a trap and he started singing his death song as I showed up He taught me one more thing that morning. Best 2 u Dean

Same with me Calvin. I was checking my trapline early one morning... I was about 15 or so.... and I came to one ground set that had a skunk in it, caught by the front foot. He was wimpering and softly crying. I had my .22 rifle with me and I laid it on the ground and began softly talking to the poor thing. After about five minutes or so he quieted down and I moved closer to him and he didn't seem bothered. After a few more minutes I slowly reached both hands toward him... he showed a little more concern and cautiously sniffed my hand as I gently depressed the spring and released his foot. He walked off about twenty feet but came right back to me, turned around, lifted his tail and squirted me with his vile sticky fluid.... I guess he remembered he should have done that earlier

What a great story Dean! I guess he figgered as he walked away that "hell, he's just going to sit there and let me go? I think I'll just trot back and let that azzhole have it right in the face; my foot hurts like hell!!".....

About a week ago I was out for a dog walk. The dogs were in the hollow somewhere to the east of me. A woodpussy showed up in the woods about 40 yards ahead of me to the west, just moseying toward me. I slipped the .17 off my shoulder and centered him. What to do; if I shot, the dogs would be in in a flash. At about 30 yards his poor eyes noticed me (I guess he could only smell himself) and he turned and lifted his tail and proceeded to amble away. After a minute, the dogs came in to me and I collared them and we walked out of the woods. They got to stay in the house that night.

Just couple days ago on Friday I was irrigating our pastuse out in front of my house I turn around and there's a coyote no more than 20 feet from me. So I told my dad he got the 22-250 and shot the coyote, "Nailed him clean."
