Just about 2 weeks ago I was out riding and I hit a coyote. I didn't want to but I was going to fast to even stop in time. All i seen was a flash in the corner of my eye and then i felt the four wheeler jerk to the side, i was really lucky that i didn't wreck when this happened because of how fast i was going, It just jumped out of the ditch right in front of me, where i wasn't able to see it. When i turned around i noticed it was a coyote.
Over here the coyotes aren't really a problem because they are scared of people, but they help keep the jack rabbits down, last year they would kill some of our smaller trees because they would chew on them.
