Baiting Coyotes

I stopped and picked up a deer carcass last Monday and staked it
down with barbed wire in two places across the body. Once
across the ribs right behind the front legs and across the
stomach area in front of the hind legs. I mean the wire was
cutting into the hide it was so tight. I chose to put it in a
field behind my house beside a deep ravine where I frequently
seen coyotes. I can set on my porch and see the
carcass....exactly 165 yards...easy shot on a yote. This thing
goes untouched since last Monday other than a few buzzards
picking at it. I get up this morning....gone...the whole
carcass is gone....bones and all..... :'(

I have tried the same thing. I had to tie all 4 legs and the
head to keep them from dragging it off. Just like your
experience, they seem to leave it alone for several days then it
gets eaten in one night. Last week I found a dead cow on some
property I hunt, It was untouched untill yesterday and now it is
nothing but a greasy spot!

The first time I tried it., I used a feral hog that had freezer
burned. I put it out at about 10:30 pm and went back at
daylight. Sat for about an hour Watching te tall grass i had
placed it in. Finally I walked down to it and it was gone!
coyotes had even eaten the grass around it!

I set out one last year~carcass~ plucked off a couple of fox,
half dozen of crows and a raccoon. About 6 days into it, caught
a black bear via trail cam hauling the thing off. Hey, it was a
free meal or two anyway for the weary bear.

I could have shot a couple of opossums one night....didn't want
to mess with them.
