RE: Coyotes and Turkeys
I heard from a trapper in Sask. that shooting 'yotes just makes more 'yotes. By culling the popluation, the females can breed more often becausethere's always some "space" (niche) available. I thought the guys was nuts when I heardhim say it. After a bit of thought, Ithink he may be on to something.
That being said, we don't have a 'yote problem here, but a feral dog one. We usuallycull them when a shot presents itself...it seems to work, at least for a few weeks.
