Today, I had the opportunity to take a shot at 3 yotes simultaneously.. They we're lined up head- to-tail and I shot at the middle one, and it dropped. The other two ran off and I couldn't get off another shot. (single-shot shotgun) My question is this---How many, or what percentage, of the pellets probably hit the other 2 ? Would this be enough to be eventually fatal ?
Here's the stats---
12 gauge, modified cylinder choke, BB shot. range about 25 yards. Diameter of the 3 yotes lined up is about 8-9 feet.
How it happened-----The 3 yotes were trying to surround some deer next door to my house. Then they grouped together and began to run away to my right. When I appeared, they stopped for a second to look at me and that is when I fired at the middle one. I'll have a pic of the dead one tomorrow (It is nothing special)
Now get this (and this ain't no CensoredCensored))---The leader of this hunting pack appears to be a female yellow lab retriever DOG that has been seen running around the neighborhood---a typical "loose dog". It was out in FRONT of the hunting pack and the other two were following it ! ! I should have shot it instead, but a tree partial blocked the sighting. This dog does NOT appear to be a hybrid (coydog) but instead like that of an abandoned pet that has gone feral and has joined a yote pack, at least for hunting anyway.
I really hope a lot off pellets hit this "yote". I'm attuned to differing yotes from dogs, but this "yote" has me really concerned. It didn't look ANYTHING like a typical yote or coydog ! !
