Catching hogs by hand is easy and fairly sane. Catching a coyote by hand is ludicrous.

Years ago I was on stand hunting whitetails, and the trees around me were full of annoying,chattering red squirels.Suddenly the woods went dead quiet.A Pine Martin appeared,slowly moving through the trees, watching for any squirrels that were dumb enough not to vacate the area.Having not seen any deer on this stand yet that season, I though a Martin mount would look great back at our deer camp.Once he stopped on a branch, 30 yards away,I put his head in the scope of my .270 and fired, and the big weasel dropped out of the tree.I climbed out of my stand and walked over to where it fell.But I couldnt find any sign of it anywhere.A tiny splash of blood next to a fallen tree truck was the only sign, and I assumed it had simply rolled under the log when it fell dead.I kneeled down and reached under the log, feeling around for the carcass....unfortunatly the headshot was only a grazing wound and the martin wasnt dead but merely stunned.When I grabbed it by its midsection, and pulled it out, the martin suddenly came back to life and decided to show me just how sharp his teeth were.Lucky for me, I had a thick pair of wool gloves under a pair of extra thick leather electrical linesmen work gloves.The martin bit and tore savagely at my hand and arm,snarling wildly and I had try to throw it twice before it loosened its grip on me and landed at the base of a spruce tree, which it quicky ran up.I put another round through its chest and it fell dead at my feet.The 2nd round did so much pelt damage that I never even kept it.That ended my days of reaching into unknown places for game that may or may not be dead.

Like any wounded predator or animal it's best to keep your distance... that's rule # 1 plus common sense.

So the answer is NO... I would notify personnel capable of dealing with such a situation.... or I would put it out of it's misery if needed.

I definitely wouldn't reach for it. Nothing good is likely to come of it. There are tools or nooses, such as those used by animal control officers, to deal with critters in this condition.

In my profession I have had to take hold of crippled animals from time to time. I never had trouble taking hold of them but on several occasions I had trouble letting loose of them. I wouldn't advise it. I used very heavy up to the elbow leather gloves. The only time I took hold of them was when they were in a position and place where I couldn't shoot them first.

That's foolish on several fronts. Sticking your hand in there like that is asking for a perforated hand and best, or rabies or something along that line at worst. Too, the PETA crowd would love to have that footage to show at their next meeting, with all the giggling and laughing, (reminded me of the hyenas in "Who Framed Roger Rabbit?") and tossing an already crippled animal, even if it is a coyote, around. Agreed, don't let it die a lingering death in that hole, but that's about the only positive I could find here. E~WV

I'd echo just about everything 007 said above me. Peta and anti hunters would make hay with that.

I will say I was impressed with how easy he made it seem. Once he got it out he was sure to fling it far enough to get clear of any biting and snapping.

This kind of stuff gives PETA idiots all the fire they need to rally a massive outcry against hunting/guns/anything. In my Opinion, these idiots are as much of an enemy to hunting as PETA is.
