Declaring "war" on coyotes here...

It won't happen with yotes. We've been shooting, trapping, poisoning, aerial shooting and poison trapping them for centuries and they are still here. Only the alpha wolf has pups. All coyote females have pups and when the population is low and food plentiful they have more pups.

The best thing you can do is to get rid of the problem animals and form a truce with the rest as long as they aren't killing your animals. They do help keep rodent populations down.

Don't use poisen, no telling what you might kill and it's probably illegal. If you are not willing/able to hunt them yourself, find someone who will.

we didn't have coyotes when i was a kid but by the time i was 20 they were around now they are thick

unlike northern MN there is mush less space that isn't planted in corn, hay , wheat or beans in southern Wis there are large portions of the county that only have fields and creeks , i think if there was the will to eliminate coyotes if could come very close to happening here , but there is no will , all the production farming has move inside , so unless coyotes start eating corn or beans they are not a priority for large scale ag

some one once asked me if there are more cows than people in your county where are they all? inside or behind the barns they spend very little time outside

fewer and fewer places graze any more often they are the smaller operations.
