thats way to close.... people have been attacked.... normally you'd never even see them...so somethings up...with that one....either
it's rabid...or somehow lost its fear of man...something. Is there a food source anywhere near by...as in un eaten dry dog food .... rib bones tossed into the woods or anything similar?

I don't have any idea but I am going out into the woods this morning to dump some barrels so I am going to look around. it looked really healthy a nice coat and shinny. I was kinda wondering myself why it was around during the day.

Kill em' all.

Why even try.........

Bob - you know where I am located. We have a yote hanging around my back yard. I have seen him from time to time. Neighbors behind me had a housefull of cats and are now down to one. I am guessing he got them. One night there was an awful bloodcurdling screech and next day another cat was missing. There are plenty of them aroung our area. Especially around the Burl. Res.

Speaking of fox's - i was into blues at Hatches habah last year and with them coming fast. I threw them on the sand behind me. After taking one off the jig, I couldn't find the fish I had previously caught. I chucked the one freshly caught into the same area and watched from the surf. The fox appeared out of the dune and grabbed the fish. He dragged it into the dunes so fast it was amazing. He was watching every move I made.

There is a pack that roams the river corridor behind my house and we used to have them all the time at my folks house in the Berkshires. Like Stiff said Kill it. If you don't have a gun find some one that does. They are very brazen animals and they just don't kill to eat. They will kill just to kill. Since snaring and trapping has been outlawed in a lot of places people don't hunt them like they used to because they don't get what they used to for the pelts and the popualtions are taking off and their habitat is being taken over by development. They are very smart animals and because a lot of people have daily routines, especially when it comes to pets, ie let them out at 6 am to do there business, let them out at 4-5 pm you you get home from work, and then again at 9-10pm before bed the coyotes will start patterning and you will start seeing them show up on the edge or your property around these times. Watch cats, small dogs and even small children. -James
