    I'm glad. I looks like they killed about 20% of the population just last year.

    It's stupid to think that hunters can take the place of the natural predators that would, if allowed, keep grazers from eating up every shred of grass in the Rockies!

    Agreed. Worst thing is they can shoot 'yotes year-round without license, they are considered pests.

    'Wicka, did you edit your post? I coulda sworn it said "eastern Montana"...
    Lotta coyotes out there
    'Round here we call it West Dakota. :p

    All the guys who like shooting coyotes can come here. They are invading our state and they are not native.
    Begs the question, why are they invading?
    Because we killed off our native fox and red wolf and there were no predators to eat the rabbits, possums, field mice and gophers.

    I admit that wolf meat is a bit tough and stringy, but if you stew it long enough, put some black pepper in the stew it ain't too bad. Tastes better than turtle meat!

    Farmers hunted wolves to extinction partly because it makes you feel like a man to know that you killed the last major predator in your state, (of course how you feel and what you really are can be two different things). Secondly, we needed to wipe out the wolf because wolves did steal a lamb or piglet from the farm once in a while. Well our neighbors stole from us too, but the law don't allow shooting someone for stealing your pig (unless he's a wolf).

    But if the neighbors don't invite you to the barbecue afterward, then you should shoot your neighbor (just nick him a little) or you will look like a pansy to the whole valley.

    Am I not destroying my enemies when I make friends of them? (Abraham Lincoln)
    Am I not destroying nature's enemies when I teach them to be her friends?
