Long story short, she was fucking killed by coyotes. Usually these assholes will leave people alone. Man, I'm glad I'm super armed every time I have to deal with these guys when they wander into town looking for food.

 

[Koko]

Were they trying to eat her? or just defending themselves

 

[Frank]

I'm guessing the former.

 

[Koko]

I got to say, going out in a coyote attack is as badass as it gets, i'll take that over cancer and heart disease any day
:rip:

Crazy enough, there is a coyote in my backyard right now.

Holy crap, they got Twitch!

Grab your shotguns, people - any one of us could be next.

I didn't even think they had coyotes in Nova Scotia.

What a bizarre way to go. I've never heard any grisly coyote stories before, they're almost as bad as foxes. They're kinda skittish is what I'm saying.

I LOVE the CNN Headline:

Canadian folk singer died doing something she loved, mother says.

Apparently, she loved screaming and being ripped apart by wild dogs.

America: We arm ourselves for fear of ourselves.

Canada: We arm ourselves for fear of being ripped apart by wild animals.

No, see, that's just the thing. Nobody fears being ripped apart by coyotes. Because its so damned implausible!

 

[Dave]

No coyote in his right mind would jump us by the fire.

 

[Shakey]

That's the first time I've ever heard of anyone being attacked by coyotes. I've heard of them getting chickens and stuff like that, but this is just odd.

Comedy, fucking, gold there Dave. -

 

[fade]

That is odd. We go to really remote places for field studies, and we run into coyotes all the time. They usually duck away or even beg, but I've never really seen aggression. I'll be a little more wary from now on.

Reading about something is not the same as experiencing it.

Don't label a sad little tragedy like this one "badass" because you think it's cool. Coyotes are small, it would take a long time for them to kill you -unless you offer your throat first - all the while you are slowly ripped apart and devoured alive.

 

[drawn_inward]

I've grown up with coyotes around. I've gone out into the brush and tree-lines, and haven't had a single problem. I did almost step on a badger which scared the shit out of me. And, I did step on a rabbit, and it freaked me the hell out. Those things screech like a woman. Dear God, that scared me.

 

[sixpackshaker]

Wow, that is like getting killed by two toy poodles. I just can't see it. They better do a good post mortem, to be sure she was not already dead when she became lunch.

I'm thinking she might've just went into a state of useless panic. Which would give the little coyotes plenty of time to do their thang.

Well, northern coyotes can get up to around 75 pounds in size, they're not exactly tiny.

 

[Covar]

I thought the NHL was keeping them in Phoenix?

 

[IronBrig4]

Well that sucks and I'm sorry to hear she's dead. But when I heard that a Canadian teen pop star died, I immediately thought of that "Let's Go To the Mall" episode from How I Met Your Mother.



There are plenty of coyotes around Southern California and I haven't had a single problem with them. They must have been startled to attack her like that.

Fun fact: There are no Coyotes in Newfoundland.

Those traumatized by this story are free to sleep on my couch.

Only if you've tesed it to ensure it's coyote-free.

 

[ThatNickGuy]

Speaking as a Maritimer, coyotes are pretty common. I know in the more rural areas of PEI, everyone was armed to protect their fields from coyotes. They're not AS common in Nova Scotia, but not unheard of.

Personally, it's a horrible thing to have happened, but she was wandering on her own in the wilderness, which is NEVER a smart thing to do.

But there ARE moose. And good lord, those things are huge.

She wasn't wandering so much as talking walks in the wilderness.

Moose are big animals, but thankfully they're very tasty too.

I am used to seeing the ones down here that are more like foxes on stilts. These here are more along the lines of 25-35 pounds. 75 pound dog can kill just about any small adult alone.

Oh, they're harmless unless you plow into them going 120 km/h on the highway.

There's a reason they've been nicknamed 'Newfoundland Speedbumps.'

A moose once bit my sister.
