this is just tooooooo much...my sides are hurting...
The problem is... how do you get them to stop for the shot... a simple whoof wouldn't do it...
I use to get gallons of bacon grease from Shoneys and pour some out in front of bear bait buckets... they would get it all over themselves and track it all through the woods... which made more bears come in.... I even cooked little cans of grease while on stand with fat-lighter wood and sternos... it sure did work.
I'll be eating the bacon...but cooking the grease.
One time in Ga. I poured out bacon grease all over a dusty road to see what critters came to it in the night... coyote tracks everywhere the next morning...go figure...
If I had some handy coyotes nearby... I'd get the video camera out for some testing...

A couple years ago some guy on here claimed rotten eggs create a smell that sexually stimulates coyotes. Frying bacon and rotten eggs could be a deadly combination!
I'm sticking with the old tried and true green peas straight outta the can. I know that works.

I would not rule out any of these bait/scent ideas out of hand.
I know for a fact that burning bacon is well received.
In the winter, coyotes even go to greater lengths to eat apples ......... hunger is a powerful force.
Here's what happened to me:
I was doing a lot of range practice here on the ranch with handguns.
I used apples before I switched to golf balls. I'd shoot the apples into pieces and then chase the pieces around.
The following morning after a preceding day's practice session, I'd see my dogs bail off the feed trailer and sniff the ground around where I'd been shooting those apples into smitherines. ONE DAY, it snowed ......... the dogs bailed off again after a handgun session. What was waiting there in the fresh snow was a bunch of 'ote tracks all over my back stop!
Later, one ote got so brazen that upon gun fire, he'd begin barking at me from the nearby brush while I was still shooting. I figured he was wanting to persuade me to leave his apples.
Now, if I can condition coyotes to gun fire and apple snacks in the winter .........
............ take a little time and persuade yourself to ponder what a coyote thinks about bacon being cooked/burnt!

Been a grandpa to a few boys for quite a few years. This is the very first girl. Did I mention she is a cutie?

Quote:Lots of folks that raise & train livestock guard dogs will
hang bacon off the electric fence to train their dogs to the
fence. Works good.
Two observations in that regard:
1)Prolly trains the coyotes to stay on their own side of the fence as well.
2)Guess it is not a good idea to try the bacon frying trick in an area where they train livestock dogs, huh?
