Did I read the wrong article?

And by jogger they meant Frank McCourt, and by coyote they meant Dodger fans.

He ate all the birdseed and nothing happened?

Lies. I'm in Newport Beach right now and I don't see any coyotes.

Birdseeders were the only people to oppose the marihuana tax act of 1937 because they said no other seeds would make birds' coats so shiny or their songs so grand.

Because Anslinger held hearings in private and without the consent of the AMA, even lying about the sole quote from the head of the AMA and getting Woodward's name wrong.

/tinyurl.com/1mn -->
//And, of the industrial spokesmen, only the birdseed people balked. The birdseed people were the ones who balked and the birdseed person was asked, "Couldn't you use some other seed?"

These are all, by the way, direct quotes from the hearings. The answer the birdseed guy gave was, "No, Congressman, we couldn't. We have never found another seed that makes a birds coat so lustrous or makes them sing so much."

A man riding a horse yelled at the coyote, which was only momentarily deterred, according to Clarkson.

No, a man on a horse was not the result I was expecting...

Coyotes arent that big, turn around and kick it in the face, jeez.

Call me loony tunes, but it was more likely a chupacabra. They're gaining territory. He'll likely be back with more of his kind to suck blood wherever they can find it. People don't fear chupacabra attacks enough. They're likely to happen in most places to most people, and if I were you, dear reader, I'd keep a keen eye out for them.

This headline is awesome, subby. Anyway, the coyote probably wasn't "chasing" him, it was probably just following him out of curiosity. Lots of coyotes in the hills in the East Bay (CA) where I used to live, and i would regularly see them when i went running in open space areas. Coyotes are pretty harmless, in the grand scheme of things.

He took the seed home and showed it to his wife.
She was less than impressed.
In fact, since he was supposed to be out looking for work she was right pissed and threw the seed out of the window and made him go to bed without supper.
When the man awoke the room was dark so the man turned on the light and watched some TV .
After a few hours he decided to take a stroll outside just in case that weird hippy neighbor chick was bathing in the rain again. The sun was shining brightly outside, but from the ground right up beside his window there was growing a great patch of freebirds, which stretched up and up as far as he could see, into the sky.

"fark" said the man. "I hope Perkins hasn't seen this yet"

But Perkins HAD seen it, because that's the kind of on the ball HOA president he was, and he had already posted the citation.

Then things got weird.

Oh really?

images.mirror.co.uk

Coyotes are high level predators that have historically avoided humans only because in the past failing to doing so resulted in getting shot at.

Coyote attacks have risen sharply in recent years as people have adopted the belief that all nature's creation are as harmless as park squirrels and coyotes have begun to realize that people are really are as harmless as we like to pretend everything else is.

Could have been rabid.

As someone who lives in the mountains and sees coyotes everyday, and runs with them and my dog...

This guy is a wuss and should turn in his man card.

I'd just unleash my bulldog bark on it. I can scare off door to door religion salesmen with it, so a small to mid-sized dog shouldn't be a problem.

For some reason this:

A man riding a horse yelled at the coyote, which was only momentarily deterred, according to Clarkson.

Made me think of this:

In Tokyo two games designers went on the rampage in a shopping centre and frightened a dog. In Hamburg a group of software developers shouted at a bus. The situation is completely out of control!

Is your dog accustomed to killing all its meals? I've seen coyotes seriously fark up some good sized dogs.

He was jogging with two yorkie mixes.

If he really was in trouble the solution was pretty easy.

/I am surpised more mountain bikers and joggers in some areas don't have knives, spray or guns mounted somewhere ready to go.

Or wanted to eat his dogs.

Cyno01: Coyotes arent that big, turn around and kick it in the face, jeez.

They were after the Yorkies, who, like most small dogs, are annoying little barking shiats who don't realize they are the size of cats, and would likely not back down and get killed while he was trying to kick the coyotes.

I hike in the hills 4-5X a week with my 80lbs pitbull, but the coyotes never seem interested - in getting their asses kicked.

I agree. If it was not rabid you still have to consider the fact that a dog is a dog. If something the size of a Yorkie starts running from my dog I know what the result is going to be.

/over the last 8 years the dog has brought about 200 rats, 6 skunks, 4 cats, an opossum, and a 45lb raccoon to the back porch
//had to apologize to the neighbor when his cat became one of the 4
///was shocked the dog was still alive when I found the coon (dog is only 50 lbs himself). bonehead slept for 2 days and needed a bottle of antiseptic to clean his cuts

Coyotes are not that scary. Coy dogs, however, are. 100 lb coyote cross with no fear of humans.

If your dogs are small enough to be eaten by coyotes, that's just nature's way of correcting humanity's mismanagement of canine genes.

Step on a yorkie to break its legs and then walk away?

That is cruel.

A simple kick would slow it down.

I love dogs too. If a big angy dog goes for Fufu, Fufu can be replaced as much as don't want to do that. As nobel as it is, would you want an obit in the paper you died protecting Fufu?

He should have been glad a huge boulder didn't roll after the coyote and crush him to death.
 
2011-11-02 09:10:00 PM
Did he eat the birdseed just fine, but the coyote that was stalking him nearby get badly injured by a freak rocket accident?
 
2011-11-02 10:47:47 PM
So a guy was jogging on the beach with two dogs. A coyote sees them and starts chasing them, but a guy on a horse swoops in and rescues the man and his dogs.

What the fark.

That's what he gets for owning useless pussy dogs such as yorkies....

I don't think you have met the a yorkie. Big dog in a smaller package and often high strung. More than just the external cute.

/Not for everyone.
//May not apply to a toy. Nothing to do with your name.
