Shooters,
You have mentioned a few times about trying to remove 80% of the coyotes. I realize that different locations have different populations of coyotes. If you had 1000 acres along the Lowndes county and Wilcox county line, do you have any idea how many coyotes would be about 80%. I'm just trying to get a ballpark idea of how many coyotes would need to be removed annually.
I understand what CNC is saying but I agree with you that the removal of every coyote possible can't do anything but help. The amount that are removed will be directly related to how much you are helping the situation.
Steiner, that a hard questin to answer. How is the deer population? Are their chicken house around? How about cattle farmers? Is it open country or woods? Lots of things come in to play. CNC has a point on the fawn habitat. But i HATE the idea of" just accept it and go on". 1000 acres of cattle country maybe 10-15 coyotes. 1000 acre of cutovers, hunt club land with feeders, and woods may very well hold more coyotes. Plus the pack size of the coyotes and the number of packs in the area. Short answer is no way to really tell with out Stepping foot on it! Just dont give up is my personal RANT!
