CNC you are the typical type of person that like to pull his skirt over his head and say" o theirs just nothing we can do, but except it"! Real men stand -up and fight! How many land owners will spend the time? Most true land managers can spend the time to trap coyotes. You must be a coyote loving PETA member! Social holes and accepting coyote predator pray cycles are for people like YOU that do not have a clue what they are talking about!!! You ONLY know what you have read and have no real experience in the real world of coyote trapping. I on the other hand have work with biologist, farmer, and land managers and know that you can take -out 80% plus of a coyote population and make a BIG difference in fawn predation.A relistic solution is to learn,add controll the problem. Dont do like CNC advises and pull a skirt up over you eyes! Find a trapper make him a friend, pay for some lessons, hire him , or just swap him some hunting rights. Point dont giving up! Listen to biooligist and trapper on here and get some help = advice and lets ALL do what we can to elimanate = controll the coyote problem.
