Why do we hunt coyotes?
Coyotes are presently the most abundant livestock predators in western North America, causing the majority of sheep, goat, and cattle losses. For example, according to the National Agricultural Statistics Service, coyotes were responsible for 60.5% of the 224,000 sheep deaths attributed to predation in 2004.The total number of sheep deaths in 2004 comprised 2.22% of the total sheep and lamb population in the United States, which, according to the National Agricultural Statistics Service USDA report, totaled 4.66 million and 7.80 million heads respectively as of July 1, 2005. Because coyote populations are typically many times greater and more widely distributed than those of wolves, coyotes cause more overall predation losses. The United States government agents routinely shoot, poison, trap, and kill about 90,000 coyotes each year to protect livestock.
Coyotes typically bite the throat just behind the jaw and below the ear when attacking adult sheep or goats, with death commonly resulting from suffocation. Blood loss is usually a secondary cause of death. Calves and heavily fleeced sheep are killed by attacking the flanks or hindquarters, causing shock and blood loss. When attacking smaller prey, such as young lambs, the kill is made by biting the skull and spinal regions, causing massive tissue and bone damage. Small or young prey may be completely carried off, leaving only blood as evidence of a kill.
In the absence of the harassment of coyotes practiced by rural people, urban coyotes are losing their fear of humans, which is further worsened by people intentionally or unintentionally feeding coyotes. In such situations, some coyotes have begun to act aggressively toward humans, chasing joggers and bicyclists, confronting people walking their dogs, and stalking small children. Non-rabid coyotes in these areas sometimes target small children, mostly under the age of 10, though some adults have been bitten.

I guess I'm peeking into the rabbit hole. I recently watched "the rat buster" shooting rats on his pig farm, and now this got recommended. Nice marksmanship.

His sensitivity is too low.. what a bot..

They were all from the same night?! That's an incredible number of coyotes. Were they different packs? Usually they don't move in that large a pack. Must be really hungry or it was easy pickings.
-
Amazing hunters and advanced technology of hunting weaponry.
Good job!!! -
All the downvotes are obviously from people who have never seen their livestock butchered by coyotes. For those who downvoted: Coyotes are the greatest threat and nuisances for farmers and ranchers. They may be from the same family, but coyotes are not like dogs either. They will drag off and start eating your dog (or cat) while it's still screaming out and breathing. Do not pity these creatures. Coyotes are cunning predators and these men have a right to protect their defenseless livestock and property. Also, I respect these guys for waiting patiently to get clean kills. The scope is pretty badass too!

Y'all have to understand that this man was hunting these coyotes down not for sport but for protecting his livestocks, just appreciate the fact that he gives them a quick death with his clean shots
