coyote?

Strange looking or just the light?

A bit dark

Yep, coyote.
I just added some light and cropped it with photoshop.

Maybe this is better for showing the coyote.

Hide in plain sight.

Big coyote!

Fawn eater
That would be a good pelt, cool color

I caught one in a snare last year that was dark like that. Kind of a reddish color and was unusually large for a coyote. SOB's

Looks pretty normal to me

There should be a crosshair on it with tension on the trigger.

I could put a hurting in your coyotes problem

That'd be a good one to tan

I have heard they turn darker in color from eating young Ibex and Mouflon.....

That could very well be true. There were 2 Mouflon lambs and now there are none. But I will get it. Then the mangy bast+rd well get real dark rotting in the sun with buzzards picking his eyeballs out.

First yote I ever shot was nearly black.

I've seen one a couple of times that color just outside where I hunt.

Get ‘em, I hate coyotes almost as much as pigs.

I’ve heard rumors that the coyotes have been cross breeding…….

Is there a second yote under the big tree in the grass, or is it my tired old eyes seeing things in the original picture?

I see what you see so maybe I have tired old eyes too.

Picture without the coyote. It is grass.

In West Llano Co we had some very dark and large coyotes. A few would look almost black. Locals said they had bred with dogs many years back.
