Brown204 is correct; Most coyotes around here also are not affraid of a snowmobile, unless they have been chased by one. We have a few trails that run along creeks and in the river bottoms on the ice and if there are any coyotes around they just hold up in heavey cover nearbye and let the machines pass, about the same as a farm tractor, or pick-up they get used to them being around... T.A.

See? There you go. Can't say a damned thing about coyotes without contradiction. I have been lead to believe that coyotes are scared to death of pickups, for example. I know that crows sit on a pole and watch vehicles drive by but take off when they stop. Then, there is this concept of hiding a vehicle on a stand. Yet, I routinely see coyotes cross a road with a parked truck in plain sight, coming to a call? Go figure. LB

Coyotes aren't scared of snowmobiles yet hide in heavy cover when they pass? Interesting... The same coyotes aren't scared of snowmobiles, but won't come into distress or howls because they are too cautious. Again, very interesting.

Lonny said what I was thinking, but wasn't going to say...
Coyotes in these parts, that truly are not afraid of tractors, actively work the mice and such right behind the tractor. The ones that go hide in the brush, are the ones we think are afraid of tractors...

LOL guys: What i was trying to say is the coyotes will just lay low and wait for the snowmachine or pick-up to pass bye rather than bolt out of cover and run off into parts unknown. As of the last two weeks most of the coyotes we have been getting have been spotted out in the open fields dureing daylite hours..Yesterday while out hunting the crew decided to meet and talk about what area we would go to hunt next. The guys where all parked on the road about 2 blocks north of a small vacant grove and have been sitting there for 5 minutes or more. I came down the road from the south heading north to where they were parked,i was still a couple hundred yards south of grove when a coyote comes out of the south-west corner of grove just walking. You would think if the coyote was affraid of the guys parked on the road he would of come out of the grove at a dead -run..Hmmm ![[Razz]](tongue.gif)

brn 204, are the vocal reponses to you a buggar bark or a social howl response. If it is a buggar bark you can probably assume you were detected before you ever called or the coyotes have heard too many calls.

I have to agree with Leonard calling around skidoos doesn't work very well. I won't say that they are afraid of skidoo's but I do feel that they are cautious about being out in the open when they hear a skidoo.
I feel strongly enough about this that I won't waste my time calling in skidooed(?) areas.

Coyotes are very fond of and respond well in the Arctic Cat areas. They may have a different response in the SkiDoo areas.

Now I see my error, we use Polaris sleds!
to answer some of the points mentioned,
as far as I know, nobody calls that area. Just Deer, Moose and Turkey hunters will be in there.
The howls where weird. Barks, yips howls and all kinds of noise came from the coyotes. But if I would stop for a minute or two, they would start the same routine as to try to get me to go again.
They would just go and go for a long while.

204, is the second child here yet??? I went through the waiting for one and that was enough for me.
If there was anything resembling a bark you were probably busted. I think Sceery called it a threat-bark-howl or some-such. Bad news, either way, though if you can watch one doing it it is kind of fun to watch them bounce around with stiff front legs. You can play with them and make lots of noise but they know what you are the whole time and will probably remain conveniently out of sight. They know what you are and they are making sure everybody else does too.
Just my amateur take, I may be way off base. Thrown out for conversation's sake.
