Made me think about what would happen if I had a gun and I was forced to

up on the laws about that.


Seems like we went through that just the other day! I think a round in the ground would be the best
idea, initially. I'd be worried about rabies also, with a wild animal such as a coyote or fox.

Once you discharge a firearm in a restricted area you are potentially
subject to legal action, so you might as well make it a shot to center
of mass. There's less risk of a ricochet that way and you remove the
threat. If no one hears and reports the shot, your only problem is
disposing of the coyote.

You Fla guys don't know much about frozen ground, do ya?

Frozen ground?
I have not heard of this thing. ;-)

Bury it in the snow and plow another few feet over it.
Worry about it in April or May.

.... or just put it in the bed of the truck and kick it out on the side
of the road.
