will coyotes come to a ........

Hmmmm. That's an intersting idea. Go hide in the woods and blow a cub in distress call hoping something other than a bear comes to explore? I prefer the rabbit call. I don't like having momma bear checking me out. Would kinda ruin my day.

To be honest though, I've never tried anyting like a distressed cub. Could be very interesting /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif . Maybe someone else here has tried this tactic.
 
I agree with Mike Granger. I have this idea for a bumper sticker. It would be especially designed for those of you who blow cub distress crys in bear country during summer and early fall. Now you fellers all know that I try to watch my language on this board, but anyways------ Bumper sticker would read "HERE COMES THE BEAR, AND BOY IS HE PI*&%#@XX!!!!"
 
I would also rather use a bird or rabbit, kitten anything but a bear! Unless, it was in IA or some state that you could be almost certain not to see a bear. My worst fear is running into a bear cub and be in between it and the mother. Or having a grizzly pop up in front or behind me.T20
 
Did you guys see the picture of the hiker that was killed by that Grizzly? I wouldn't be making any cub sounds anywhere near those things.

P.S. I have the picture if you want to see it. Not a pretty site. Besides, how many of you are using a BMG on coyotes? That's what I would carry in grizzly land.

One of our members made a post on different forum about this very subject. He went out in bear country, blew the BEAR call and in came a coyote. I guess that this anwers original question pretty good. I wouldn't be brave enough to try calling coyotes with bear cub distress, or at least not in bear country. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
 
Using a cub distress just ups the chances a bear will show up. They may show up on a rabbit call too. Give it a try and let us know how it works when you get released from the hospital.

I think bears and coyotes eat the same things. If your in bear country calling coyotes, who knows what may show up, a bear, coyote, bobcat, fox, badger, lion, Wolverine, Fisher, Marten the Fish and Game lol, who knows. That's what predator hunting is all about.
