I can't believe how far this went.I was wondering why in all this,that noone mentioned a bears sense of smell.It is reported to be 7 times stronger than a bloodhound.Most experienced bear hunters do use scent eliminators,as reported on a bear hunting site.I also looked but could not find any evidence that a coyotes sense of smeel equals a bloodhound.I find it hard to believe based only on the fact that dogs are bred to increase certain attributes.A greyhound will out run a coyote.A pitbull will be a better fighter.A coyote doesn't point birds.This is because selective breeding has magnified these skills.So without the controlled breeding,I have to believe a coyotes sense of smell isn't as good.If anyono does know of a good scientific bit of research,I'd like to read it.
