Thank goodness. I am not a fan of coyotes, but I don't believe in these culls. This year, the pack of coyotes that lives in the woods behind our subdivision has decreased significantly. They live in Parks Canada land and our subdivision's conservation area, so I know it is not due to hunters, but to nature taking it's course.

the worse part is chico is that if they'd have had dogs with them, they're allowed to send the dogs on the property to chase the wolves/coyotes towards them!!

Melinda,in that case,if I had a gun,those guys better watch out,no I would not shoot the dogs or the Coyotes,but those"hunters"would feel my wrath.

I wish we lived in a world where no one took pleasure in killing another innocent creature
