It finally started moving slowly towards the garage but then stopped, turned and started walking back directly towards me. My first thought was that my gun was back in the house. It stopped again about 20 feet away and we stared at each other again for about 30 seconds then it moved on towards the garage. So, I slowly followed it, around the corner and then realized that one of the garage doors was open. (I had been in there earlier). My thought was that it had gone in the garage. Walked up slowly and looked around ... no coyote. Turned around and there he was again, standing behind me, again about 20, maybe 30 feet away. I booked it into the garage, pulled the door down fast and watched him through one of the door windows. He finally lost interest and trotted off towards my neighbor's house. They raise chickens.

Need to check up on the laws about that. Sounds like Harry - who once said he carried because of "dog packs." I can't imagine being attacked by a coyote. They are naturally fearful of me, with good reason. Dogs too. Excepting Chihuahuas. Tiny dogs are stupid. I have one. Instead of "booking" it into the garage, you should have just growled at it as you approached it. Make a fist too. Would have sent it away with its tail tucked. Bears are another story. Luddite knew it was a coyote because of the tag around its neck that said "Wile" I open carried out in the Shenandoah area because of verified reports of feral dog attacks. Do you open carry in DC because of the daily reports of shootings, muggings, rape, armed robbery etc. there? No you don't, but you cowboy up out in the woods because of an occasional stray dog incident? You are terribly inconsistent Krausie baby. As you should know by now, complaining of the shootings, muggings, rape, murders, and armed robberies in DC is as racist as mentioning Chicago. For shame. Unlike you two racist pussies, I regularly attend meetings and visit jobsites in D.C., sometimes in low-income neighborhoods, and in the 40 or so years I've been doing that, I've never encountered the shooters, muggers, murderers, rapists, et cetera, that so terrify you two ex-military pukes. You boys must have been hell on wheels while in uniform, running for cover the first time a shot was fired. |

The term 'Krausescheizze' is a noun referring to what he is spreading. I'm surely not calling Harry 'Krausescheizze'. That would be 'name-calling'.

Dogs, wolves, coyotes, etc., are all dangerous in packs and capable of taking down some fairly large animals. They are all natural born stalkers and hunters if given the chance. |

You might want to consider doing some reading on a subject before you shoot your mouth off. Attacks on humans are rare but they occur. Coyotes have lost their fear of humans in many areas (including around here) due to over population and regular encounters. They are also disease ridden due to their diet. I am sure a coyote would understand what making a fist was all about, eh? Kevin is a tough guy with a mean fist. |
