Why do people think the NY DEC stocked coyotes?? Even the DEC can't stock, or intorudce animals w/o a full impactstudy beingcompleted. Plus, what do they have to gain?? Lower the deer population?? Thats like shooting themselves in the foot. They can do that by issuing more DMP's and earn some cash all the while.

Does anyone have any proof of stocking 'yotes by the DEC?

With yote populations increasing rapidly all over the northeast, did all our states stock them?? We haveadocumentedsteady increase in coyote population in the northeast over the past 60 years or more in NY, PA, and New England. If the DEC knew that, why would they stock more?? I just can't buy it...
