    Maybe someone to manage a feral coyote shelter would be the answer...

    The OSPCA says the only "economically viable and truly humane" way to manage feral populations is to trap them, have them spayed or neutered, and then release them back into the wild.
    I know a better and cheaper fix

    Might not be that far off. As hunters one might argue if indeed there are 30 000 cats out there one might want not to shot coyotes in that area until numbers come down. Bit of nature taking care of itself. If we can't take care of the feral cats let the coyotes do it.
    Time in the outdoors is never wasted

    What says a hunter can't shoot a feral cat? Nothing in the F&W Act says you can't do it. Does anyone know of any law that says "no feeding high speed lead to fluffy"? I think it an option that needs to be looked into just at least to get a better understanding of what is or is not legal.

    Anyone know what cat tastes like? I am thinking like Pineapple chicken or sweet and sour pork......
    Take the warning labels off. Darwin will solve the problem.

    i agree. Let the coyotes put a good dent in them for now and control the coyotes later once the cats are pretty mich gone.
    Learn all you can about nature. What we don't understand, we fear and what we fear, we destroy.
    Teach a young person to hunt and fish, after all, someone taught you.

    What about farmers, do they like cats?

    Firearm discharge rules would restrict any activity in or around most towns..

    No we don't...I have one out in my barn that is like a ghost. I rarely see it, catch a glimpse of his tail occasionally. The dogs get pretty excited when they see it, so it doesn't venture anywhere near the house. It comes from the idiots place down he road that has, at her own admission, over 40 feral cats on her property that eventually wander away to her neighbours places.

    Attracting Coyotes to the area, for free cat dinners, is not a great idea...the consequences to my livestock trumps her desire to have cats.
