ONLY if he is threatening your family, or your animals..
If a coyote is in the backyard, he is a threat to any pets or small children in the neighborhood. But whether you can shoot him or if you have to call animal control will depend on where you live. In the rural setting where I grew up, we wouldn't have thought twice about it - coyote in yard = dead coyote. But now I am in an urban area and I had better not use a firearm unless someone is in IMMEDIATE danger - like the animal is gnawing on my lower extremities. Even shooting it while it was attacking my pet might be questionable.
Where I live coyote's are open season year round no perment needed. ( far east Tennessee ) there looked at as a Predator.

Why are rabbits hunted by people?
Well if it's a wild rabbit that you see in the wood it is because they think you will hurt it that you are a hunter. If you meant a pet rabbit it is because it wants it freedom, it wants to be able to run free and they don't really like to cuttle as dogs and cats. And of course they are really scared by almost everything
-------------------------------
As with most wild creatures a rabbit's survival instinct will cause it to run - attempt to escape - from anything they fear might be a predator.

How can you cook moose tongue?
I have cooked beef tongue in the microwave several times, bay leaf and all. The original recipe came from a Tappan book on 'cross cooking', either by conventional or microwave. There are recipes online now. It takes a while to cook, and in liquid it is probably not all that faster, but there is little chance of anything going wrong. I didn't have a good working stove for about 15 years and don't use one regularly now. The microwave ovens came out just in time and for me, it has been great.

According to the FBI, between 1.6 to 3%
According to Dr. Gary Kleck, criminologist at Florida State University in Tallahassee and author of "Point Blank: Guns and Violence in America," a book used by many in the gun debate, 800,000-2,500,000 crimes are stopped by guns each year. The numbers are from different studies.
Interesting Statistics:
There were over 19,000 deaths by accidental drug overdose in 2004. The majority of these deaths were from prescription drugs, not illegal drugs. Banning prescription drugs makes as much sense as banning guns.
Regarding accidental shooting deaths per year, that number is in the 14,000-17,000 range. Over 100,000,000 guns are owned in America.

Can you shoot 7mm weatherby mag ammo in a 7mm Remington mag rifle?
NEGATIVE!
Again NO. The cartrige will not fit in the chamber. However you can fire the 7mm Remington Mag in the weatherby but you will void the warranty and end up with some cases that look just like the 7mm weatherby. This process is called "fire forming" and it is use to make cases of a rare caliber from common ones. Your accuracy will not be very good and it should only be done by an experinced shooter or reloader. For pracital purposes though only shoot the specific cases that are marked to shoot in your gun. You could be seroiusely hurt to do so with out special knowlage and experince.
