I live out in the country outside of Waxahachie,Texas which is about 25 miles south of dallas.Last night about 2100,I took my little poodle out to do his business and I saw 2 right out by my mailbox,maybe 30 yards from my house.As soon as they saw me they took off.No big deal as I always carry my glock 19 with me anyway.Well this morning about 0930 I saw another one crossing the road right in front of me.Now thats a little unusual as you don't generaly see them during the day.About a month ago my neighbor just down the road lost a little terrier to coyotes.I think they must be getting hungrier than normal for some reason.I sure wish I could see one when I have my 12ga or my ak with me.There used to be a bounty on them but I don't think there is now. sj
