J.K. Alcorn 1938. Canis latrans (lutes?) 12 mi SE Fallon, 3950 ft, Churchill Co, Nevada. Dec. 3. I caught 4 coyotes in sagebrush and grass at this point as follows. All coyotes had been in traps at least two days. Measurements in inches. Dec. 3, 1938 Total Tail H/foot Ea(Crown) Sex Weight 45 12 1/2 8 5 1/2 ♂ 24 lbs. 46 13 8 5 ♀ 26 41 13 7 1/4 4 1/4 ♂ 20 41 11 1/2 7 1/4 5 ♀ 18 In one location I had used the carcas of a dead coyote for bait. By burying the carcass and leaving only a little of the meat stick out of the ground the odor becomes very strong which attracts other Coyotes. If the carcass is left on top of the ground and not buried it dries out to fast, even so often coyotes will come and take the carcass away. On one occasion the coyotes had drug another coyote carcas away from the trap and I followed the trail left in the sand for about 1/4 mile but the coyotes were still going with the old dead carcass
