Coyotes come to calls

[Brokenbucket]

Hunted the swamp lease at Four-Hole Swamp, SC and had 'yotes respond to the call rwo days in a row.
Thur.3/18: Set-up on the edge of the swamp and had a gobbler get silent. Was soft calling and after awhile saw two birds sneaking in that turned out to be jakes. I let them do their thing and they went back into a clearcut that is grownup in places. They hadn't been gone but about 2-3 minutes, when a bird "putted" and took to wing toward the safety of the swamp. I'm wondering what has happened and where is the other bird.
Went back to calling and after about 5 minutes a coyote appeared out of the cut carring one of the jakes. A load of Win.HV#5s laid him out at 20yds.
Fri. 3/19: Set up on the same cut in the same general area and started off soft calling. hadn't been calling but about 10 mins, when another 'yote came trotting out of the pines from over my left shoulder and he, also, met a wad of Win.HV#5s at 14 yds. Two 'yotes in two days of soft calling. A club member called in 5 feral dogs and only two left.
Wonder why birds get silent? Coyotes are a very good reason as are the feral dogs. What we call feral dogs are the "Carolina Dog" or "American Dingo", the first dogs on the North American continent. Small packs of them are running wild in portions of the swamps of SC and Ga.
Search their website and you'll see that they have been domesticated.

Dam yotes are all over the place, a few years back my son had one come in and jump the decoy when hunting in NY, that one didn't leave either.

Another 'yote has met his death. Came to soft hen talk. A club member posted the kill on the check-in/out board.
Harvest report:
2 swamp gobblers (both 2yr.olds)
3 feral dogs
3 coyotes
Clear cutting isn't helping matters any as the bird's patterns are being interrupted as the trees are falling. Have to hunt/scout and then it changes a few days later.
Swamp too high to wade to the inner ridges of higher ground and the birds are there....
