Why not a 3rd option of "Yes in some certain locations".

It depends if you ask a livestock farmer,a suburban dog walker or an urban couch potato.
Up where our camp is in wmu 60 definitely. Never seen so many coyote tracks as we did this year during the deer hunt. On the trail cameras that we had out less than 5 minutes after the deer showed up to feed the yotes were right there on them chasing them off... As soon as it tightens up we'll be up there trying to thin them out.

Found the same at my place in WMU 60, much more tracks and scat around, they sound off just before dark, not great for the deer hunting season for sure. The lack of small game sightings really brings it home.Originally Posted by Bo D
The only bright spot this year is that I still had a fox around for most of the summer to the coyote numbers might not be that bad, but they can still take a lot of prey animals.
Short of hounds up this way in the heavy bush they would be difficult to take without putting down lots of bait.
Rather than put down bait,I've been using a IcoTec 320 electronic call with a whirlygig attachment that drives 'yotes nuts. It works both beside a field or deep in the woods. https://www.cabelas.ca/product/16806...mbo?CatId=2541
In Unit 10, if you don’t recover your deer in the evening, there won’t be anything left of it in the morning.

I believe coyotes are a problem because they don’t have much controlling their population.
Farmers fields provide tons of mice upsetting natural balance. They eat lots of animals and reduce their populations to an unnaturally low number.
Who are the 3 people that voted no? WTF.
The wilderness is not a stadium where I satisfy my ambition to achieve, it is the cathedral where I worship.
LOL!
They have pretty much ruined Turkey hunting in my area of 92B.
