HerbcoFood Squirell fat pretty bad? johnsbrewhouse Yeah, the ones I hunted really opened my eyes to the difference between a suburban animal and a really wild animal. bocephus Nope, I don’t feed wild animals, it was a screen grab. some idiot in my neighborhood was feeding the coyotes a few years back. I’m still trying to understand the thought process and all I can come up with is he hated having a few cats or bunnies or something around?

Jonathon You know I have no idea, there just comes a point in the fat to meat ratio that isn’t ideal!

Jonathon The coyotes roam by most every night, they only come when the dogs are in. I can’t shoot them with the .22 pistol since their are houses now across the creek from my house. When I had my Wolfhounds they rarely traveled the back area near the creek because of the fear of the W/H’s size and access outside all night. My neighbors leave food out for cats all the time and wonder why they have racoons and rats visiting them every night.

Jonathon We have a village here that wants to take care of coyotes and they wonder where there cats and small dogs are disappearing to.

bocephus The problem is the coyotes are part of the natural ecosystem. They clean up the roadkills and other dead animals usually. The only time they really hunt small cats and dogs is when they are pushed out of their natural environment or lured out by humans feeding them on purpose or unknowingly by leaving things out. They can be trapped or snared fairly easy since they follow the same paths all the time. Most of the ones we have are night hunters now, not wanting to be exposed to harm during the day.

johnsbrewhouse We have seen a few on our game cameras the last couple of years, if I see one during the day he’ll be gone.

bocephus Don’t get me wrong, I will shoot them or snare them as well, we have a bounty on them here to control the population. They are scavengers and don’t roam really large areas in order to find food unless they are starving, then they prey on what they can get, cats and small dogs look just like small game.

johnsbrewhouse Yeah, Coyotes are just doing what they are supposed to do, people arent doing what they are supposed to do by feeding them!

Finally was able to make some jelly. I have had these in the freezer for 2 years. 12 half pints of chokecherry jelly and 7 pints of chokecherry syrup. Still have about 4 gallons of chokecherries left and 2 gallons of sand plums. Just ran out of time today.

ND Mike I love chokecherry syrup, my mom used to make it for me, now I have a wonderful sister in law who gives me a pint every year for Christmas. It is from my mom’s recipe.

ND Mike I hoard mine, don’t even share much with my wife. Use it on waffles and pancakes but thought it would be great on ice cream.

That’s quite a bit of work. We have chokecherry trees and sand plums all over the place around here. We used to make wine and jam out of them, some good stuff, but a lot of work.
