Vermont’s Green Mountain Animal Defenders: Coyote Hunt is “A Killing Spree”

Liberte Austin - comments No comments

 

What is it with liberals crying rivers for coyotes? Question! If you don’t hunt coyotes, how do you manage their population? Coyotes have a 63-day gestation period. Again, how do you propose managing wild creatures ready, willing and able to kill pets and harm humans? Not to mention spreading rabies. If hunting coyotes is inhumane . . .

then rat poison should be banned. I don’t see any bleeding hearts calling to stop controlling NYC’s rat population.

One Controversial Coyote Hunt Is Canceled, and Another Crops Up

Sponsors of a monthlong coyote hunting contest planned for February canceled the event. Series11 Sporting Goods and the Weston Rod & Gun Club in Southern Vermont cited a lack of interest in a posting on social media.

Meanwhile a different coyote hunting contest, for the weekend of February 10 and 11, is being sponsored by the Green Mountain Houndsmen Club in Franklin County, according to Protect Our Wildlife, a Stowe-based nonprofit.

The Stowe organization is one of several animal rights groups pressing Vermont lawmakers and state Fish & Wildlife Commissioner Louis Porter to ban coyote hunts on the grounds that they promote senseless killing of animals that no one wants to eat.

Green Mountain Animal Defenders circulated a petition to ban coyote hunting in Vermont and called the Series11 planned hunt a “killing spree.” The petition,  on change.org, had attracted almost 8,000 signatures as of Thursday afternoon, although many of those were from people who live outside Vermont.

Opponents of coyote hunting contests have also asked Vermont landowners to post their property to prohibit all hunting as a way to pressure the state to take action against the coyote contests . . .

Supporters of the hunts say they reduce coyote attacks on Vermont’s deer herd and help keep the thriving coyote population from spilling into residential areas where the animals sometimes prey on cats and dogs or scare people.

  1. Cabot builds another barbecue gun that is otherwise a safe queen or mounted securely to a wall for display only. No one in their right mind would carry this piece in public.
    The ladder Damascus is nice, but I prefer the lack of uniformity of the pattern in their regular Damascus guns.

  2. You can’t pay a criminal enough money. Crime does pay and it pays well. The downside is getting caught; a successful politician doesn’t have to worry about that.

    At least they are not stealing money from the people in order to pay off the criminals. When they decide to steal money from the people, after they realize things aren’t changing much, they should spend it on arming and training victims instead.

  6. Don’t kill the yotes! Instead, capture them and move them into the Demtards’ neighborhoods where they can do some good. Rabies and all.

    Stupid people deserve a stupid end.

  7. Considering the fact that coyotes are mass pheasant killers they probably should be mowed down like the Trump supporters in Las Vegas.

  8. Screw this company, it was founded by a stolen valor lying asshole (Joe Lucania)! I met this prick once when my unit, 2/24 Weapons Co., was helping out with a Cub Scouts event. Joe was in attendance, and was wearing/proudly displaying a HOGs tooth and telling war stories. Nothing he said made any sense and he was called out on it. This was 2011-12 timeframe. Not even sure if he was part of the Cub Scout Troop, I think he just got off on being around real Marines!

    Joe finally admitted to his shitbaggery in 2016:

    “I am not and was not a Marine, did not serve and do not have a DD-214 [discharge record]. I have no excuse for my actions and realize there is nothing I can say or do to make this right,” Joe Lucania

    It appears that the company is under new leadership, but DDA’s reputation is forever tarnished by the actions of its founder and CEO! Plenty of other respectable companies out there to buy from!

  9. Am I the only one bothered by the fact that the slide serrations don’t match the angle of the grip? And it’s not just on this 1911. It seems they all are off. Damn my mild case of OCD.

  10. One of the few things I really miss from 40 something years ago – using M60 out of a Huey

    Good fun on range not so much with stuff coming back.

  11. It’s a good idea, but a massive thing to hang on your rifle.

    The further forward the bipod is the less it magnifies twitches, so IMHO this thing is theoretically sound. But it might have a better place with a DMR or benchrest shooter.

  12. Couple things, is that yellow tank the fuel tank? It fills from the outside. Nothing like using a sealed container full of an extremely combustible fluid to stop tracer rounds. Second, that belt gun has a high rate of fire but not much of a heat shield on it. And last but most important, why doesn’t the US have choppers like the Russians. They can haul troops, provide support for those troops, but they also have rockets where they can circle back around and just drop the building on top of the enemy dead.

  13. If the city folk want to ban coyote hunts, then we should ban euthanasia of aggressive, dangerous dogs, ban rabies shots, and require these cities let these dogs freely roam their streets. Perhaps after fluffy becomes a doggie snack and a few kids get mauled to death, they will get it.

  14. Oh this is priceless. Couldn’t have happened to a more deserving scumbag. I wonder if he realizes that he got a taste of what his party has been doing to Illinois taxpayers for decades?

  15. Not only do the police have immunity if they shoot you, they also have no duty to interfere with your demise at the hands of a murderer. Kind of the best of both worlds.
