Northeast Hunting – New England's Premier Hunting & Firearms Blog

Hello again. Its been a while since I have posted to the blog busy with work and other things. Bought a new bow last weekend so I have been shooting that trying to get it zeroed in for bow season and to hopefully bring you some great new pictures. Moving on to the headline! As I was driving to work the other morning I heard on the radio that their is a new predator making its way across the country. From what followers and researchers have seen it has made it as far East as New York. The new predator is being called a coywolf! Apparently somewhere along the line a wolf and a coyote have breed creating possibly the super predator! We all know what damage the coyotes have been doing in the Northeast and if you read any sportsman papers you will also find numerous articles about what wolves are doing to cattle and various other animals in the Midwest. If any one has any information regarding these creatures lets start to share it and see if we can prepare for their first arrival around here.

I was not in Maine this past weekend but Alex was and did bring home some more positive news regarding coyote hunting. He and my father-in-law ran into a guy they know and he mentioned an area that he always sees at least two coyotes when he drives by. So obviously they went to check it out and as they were driving down this particular road, right on the side of the road within 20ft was a coyote starring back at them. If they only had a gun and camera I could have proven it to you, but they didn’t have any of those things. They said you could have gotten out of the jeep, loaded the gun, and taken a shot because he just starred at them for a bit. Of course this all happens when I don’t go, I had to stay home because of my job.

Moultrie digital game cameras offer a variety of affordable options. The new Moultrie Game Spy i60 trail camera offers an infared flash, built in viewer, day & night video, and a 6 megapixel resolution. The remote activator and locator features are a nice added feature. The Moultrie Game Spy i-40 is a 4 megapixel camera that is a bit more affordable. With the 150 day battery live, and 45′ flash range, it is hard to beat. My first digital game camera was a Moultrie. They make great cameras for the entry level game watcher, as well as the avid hunter.
