too many coytes

It was a nice sunny day, in fact it was a sunday mornin in da U.P. eh" I brought my beagles huntn. we went out deep in da woods, we were setn up, wen suddnly a coyote popped out of da woods, Im luky i had my beagles on a leash or those coyotes would be sorry. this is a true story, dont worry none of the coyotes or my dogs were harmed nor touched.

Hi, im bored.

i hate coyotes they tried to killed a small little dog my freids dog. her brother was taking him outside to go to the bathroom and he saw 2 glowing eyes in the woods so the dog ran in side.right now there frobly in her yared right now.go and get them!

sitting together in our hunting blind 2 yrs ago my husband and i witnessed a full pack of coyotes running through the woods. As we sat there and watched the Alpha Male who was blonde and white his coat shined in the sunlight of the day and we were so amazed at the awesomeness of the moment. This is truly God's Country in all its splendor.

lots of 2 legged p[redators out there

you people crack me up!

I am reasonably sure that coyotes do 90% of the foul things that wolves get blamed for. Coyotes do not belong...and they are thick. Wolves eat and hunt coyotes...so I find it hard to believe that wolves are too numerous here. Wolves and coyotes are natural enemies. Wolves eat the sick and the weak...cull the deer herd...coyotes just kill to kill...and often do not even stick around to finish their meal. Wolves make a stronger deer herd...coyotes decimate a deer herd. I hate coyotes...but prefer the wolves any day.

One of the main reasons that the coyote population has exploded like it has is that you don't have the trappers like years ago. The "Tree Huggers" saw to that. There used to be a bounty on Coyotes but that is also no longer. Trappers used to be able to keep the number in check, but no longer. There arn't enough wolves to keep the coyotes number reasonable, only trappers were able to do that. We reap what we sow. Same is true with the damage and flooding the beaver do. When I moved to Watersmeet in 1966 there were probobly 20 to 30 trappers that were active. I know of only one right now. If it wasn't for my health, I would still be out there trapping and doing my part to keep the populations in check. On for the good old days.

In the sixties...there were no coyotes. in the seventies, we began to see them. By the eighies, they were the dominant predators in the north woods. They do not belong, and this is not their normal range. They are also very upsetting to the balance of nature. Nothing controls coyote populations effectively...except the wolves.

Wolves control coyotes...wolves are natives...wolves belong. I will take a pack of wolves any day, over the huge number of coyotes cruising the woods.

I respect wolves...and hate coyotes. I still maintain that most of the things that wolves get blamed for, is the work of coyotes. I say give the wolves a chance to reset the correct balance of nature.
