Old post but I can confirm there are coyotes to some extent in pretty much every eastern shore county. We've killed them in most of them.
Feral pigs again too I saw some a few months ago near some Turner farms lands.Old post but I can confirm there are coyotes to some extent in pretty much every eastern shore county. We've killed them in most of them.
I had been guessing that feral pigs were actually here even though officially they are not yet in DE or MD. They prefer to live where people prefer not to go. They have been in PA, NJ and VA for decades and love swampy bottom land ... half of DE east of 1 and all of ES west of 50 below Cambridge.Feral pigs again too I saw some a few months ago near some Turner farms lands.
Coming out of a bean field and crossing the road.
There were a bunch (pigs) killed in Linkwood last year I think it was.I had been guessing that feral pigs were actually here even though officially they are not yet in DE or MD.

Like I mentioned earlier, coyotes have been around for some time.
The first coyote I saw locally in the woods was Sika deer hunting was near the Spicer sawmill and that was a very well long time ago.
I had witnessed them before over the other side near Weston farms multiple times nearly two decades ago.
When I saw the one sika deer hunting at first I thought it was a dog like a Shepard and then I realized where I was at. Not even expecting anything in the very least of a coyote or dog for that matter but I did get a shot off and I missed!
Anyway, it ran off through some big bull pines and laid up right next to a tree about 8o yards away and took another one and missed again! Story of my life shooting in the woods, but that one small hesitation not wanting to shoot someones dog will mess you up I s what I think now.
One day, Ill post a picture of the bear over by Greenbriar but no one would be believe that either but they're there. Not far from that Black-water rental company near the Tubman store.
Which is the real myth, the store not the bear.
Some of them boys down below been killing coyotes for a long time. Even before I saw the first ones on the way to Elliot's.
They're all over the place nowadays, even out my way. Met a guy who was guiding for them this past summer. Caroline is where he was from I think.
They are definitely in every county. Now, the population density may not be high, but they're there.MD DNR has been saying they were in every county in MD for at least 2 or 3 years. I don't think they could be in every MD county and not be in DE as well. My cousins confirm sighting them farther up the peninsula in Kent County MD just last week.
