Well the source is unimpeachable but don't know if he weighed it.Anyway a DNR friend from Mn just e-mailed me that his local VFW Tourney(Ortonville,Mn)last saturday had 19 teams with 49 yotes and i fox turned in,winning team had 10,and one yote allegedly weighed 62lbs.He was stunned by its size and labeled it 'almost wolf like,yet a coyote'.Don't ask-thats all I know.
Would have liked to see it.

I hunt Northeast Missouri, I would say in this area, your average female weighs around 40lbs. Some are a little bigger and some smaller. It is not uncommon at all to shoot a Male over 50 lbs here though. I would say that is probably average. As for the " record coyote" being a wolf, don't think so. We don't have them here. Maybe a malamute. I'm skeptical too, but we do have pretty good size coyotes in this area, and Carroll county is 2 counties west of where i live.
I hunt all over the Northeast corner of the state, and every area has different coyotes. Shelby county coyotes are usually smaller and almost red fox coloration. Monroe County dogs are Large! And typically Siver/White colored. Marion and Ralls counties have you typical colored coyotes but are usually good size dogs. Must be something in the dirt, but we have good size coyotes in this area.

Haha yea whoever did that DNA test needs to try again.
