Coyote using the wind & cover

This is an example of how quick a big old coyote can get to the call and use the wind and cover to evade you.

We were able to get into this are and leave everything out in front of us undisturbed. With in a minute or two, we had this big male loping in. Unfortunately, the big coyote faded toward the wind and cover before we realized we should have stopped the coyote out in front of us.

Once the coyote exposed himself, he caught us moving and used the cover to retreat to safety and the wind.

Always make a mental note of where the wind is taking your scent when calling coyotes. If you have cover on on the windward side, do NOT let a coyote get near the edge of the cover.
