Eastern coyotes are a different critter than their western counterpart. They do not respond to calls like they do in the west. A sportsman's club in western PA has a big coyote hunt/competition every year. The first year the prize money reached a sizable sum ($15k) competitors came from many western states. They assumed that because they know how to hunt coyotes out west that they were a shoe-in for the money. Results, not one western competitor killed a coyote. Most years the winners are those that run them with hounds.
