DavidGSeibold<p>The Hanging Pole (t)</p><p>A lot of ranchers have a practice of hanging dead coyotes on the fence. Coyotes are smart. One sniff of a dead coyote and the live ones know to avoid the area. The same scenario was practiced by humans throughout history. The only problem was that humans didn't sniff the carcass, so, they never learned to stay away.</p><p>Woody Granite Road, Kern County, California 2011<br><a href="https://toad.social/tags/The_Hanging_Pole" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>The_Hanging_Pole</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/Hogwash_Book_Two" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Hogwash_Book_Two</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/fence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>fence</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/Woody_Granite_Road" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Woody_Granite_Road</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>photography</span></a><br><a href="https://flic.kr/p/229FV6q" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">flic.kr/p/229FV6q</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p>
