What's This & Can I Shoot It?

[Unicorn]

Got this off our cams and looks too big to be a coyote. Any ideas? Is it just a huge coyote, an East Texas red wolf, or something else? How do you tell the difference and whether to shoot?

I've never heard of an East Tx red wolf,
that pic appears to be a yote and needs to be dead

Big mature yote, legs are too short for a red wolf.

[Unicorn]

Thanks. I'll take him out. We have a huge problem with preds to where we don't even have a turkey season anymore in my county. Will blast him if I see him.

You better make a good shot or he'll be carrying you off by the leg.

Unless it's one o' them tree climbin' yotes, I'll prolly be okay for a while. But I do hear ya, rifle might be the choice over bow in this case.

Smoke the yote.

A well placed broad head will do the trick.

Big yote! Definitely a fawn killer.
