Dog instead of Yote after the shot

Yup, out a couple weeks ago. Loading up and scanned the field. Saw a 'dog' sitting in the path out, then it left ( I was scanning so didn't see it leave). Never seen a yote sitting like a dog. Lying down, yes. Sitting - nope. Not going to chance it even if the dogs are supposed to be in the house.

I have watched them sit and survey the area of the call as if trying to decide if it is safe to approach. What I have not witnessed is a coyote with their tail in a vertical position.
 
Good info. Late at night I was moving from the stand to atv and thought I ought to scan where I exit, opposite end of pasture. Scanner is low res. I've tried to rotate the stand so I can see both ends but it's too dang heavy. Might get SIL to move it with the tractor. He's got another feeder and hog trap on the other side of the lake but me trying to get out of the pine forest at nite is a no-go. Path wanders around a long ways. Farm on one side has chickens and the other runs cattle. Lots of yote calls there. Just put a TX60 IR on the Henry 308 with 110vmax, should be good for longer distance. Got a rattler 640 on the 300BO, works fine but the higher res of the Iray should keep me out of trouble.
