Coyote pup is cute.
Still, I feel there is some backdoor, bunny huggin' chit goin' on there.
This story is prototypical of the kind of crap that Animal Planet spoon feeds the public in attempts to portray hunters as cruel, senseless killers. This story plants the seed that coyotes are cute & cuddly and the public draws a correlation to their house pet.
WHAMMO! That same public will consider sportsmen as cruel for hunting coyotes!
That's how it happens, the Disney mentality in a nutshell.
Her intentions may be pure, but that is the kind of story that humaniacs will try to use as ammo against sportsman at every turn...
That said, I've got nothing nice to say about the link and don't agree with it even being posted on a hunting related forum.
Keeping a wild pet is one thing. Posting a webpage & soliciting donations to make a buck off it is bullchit.
Just my opinion though...

Dont know whats more irritating, people who try to domesticate wild animals (other than my wife...doh), or cat people.
First, like mentioned above, its negative media for hunters, then, when the animal turns on the owner or whomever, its cause the hunters again and the person is so brave for doing it in the first place..
Remember that documentary on the grizzlies that ate that guy and his girlfriend??
Bad medicine...esp the exploitation of it just to make a buck instead of getting a real job.
Rant over.
