 He's been eating my chickens and fawns for a while now. Busted him with a load of 000 buck last nite at 10:30, weighed 77 pounds. Never seen one this big in this area. I'm 6'1" and 250 pounds for reference.

Thanks y'all. Most of the ones I've shot this year have been in the 30-50 pound range. With the river flooding here the big ones are getting pushed out on us I guess. My daddy just sent me a pic of another big male he shot 15 minutes ago. They on the move today.

Great male to take out, replacements should be dumber at 1st. Would be a good hide to get tanned, after all you paid for it with chickens  Now, bug bomb for da fleas!

Clearly he's been fattening up on chickens and fawns! Congratulations on taking him out.

Dang, the biggest one I ever shot was 50 pounds. A 77 pounder is truly impressive.

I killed a 65 pounder back in the early eighties, the local govt. trapper said it was a coydog. Your's sir is truly a beast. Most of the coyotes around my neck of the woods are 30-40 lbs on average. Occasionally run onto a bigger one but very seldom. Being a rancher myself, I had just as soon not see any that size around here.

Is he missing his one front leg? Nice yote for sure. With the cold weather here in PA now, trapping these should be getting better.

That is/was a nice one. Hopefully those chickens get some relief now.
