Alberta Ranchlands
Cattle country means hay, straw and feedlots—a magnet for mice. And hot on their tails? The prairie’s gorgeous, light-coloured coyotes. To take advantage, you need a combination of flat-shooting rifles, snow camo, rabbit or deer decoys, and electronic or mouth calls. Oh, and a big dollop of persistence. Make no mistake, they’re called “wily” for a reason—if a coyote sees you first, it’s game over. The Alberta Professional Outfitters Association can help plan your hunt.
