Default RE: coyote hunter problems

Well, i dunno how lazy dog hunters are compared to people who shoot from a stand or blind, but i'll leave that one alone.

Coyotes have been absolute hell on small game and farm animals in the area where i own land in Illinois. A few years ago, two different groups of coyote hunters started hunting the area regularly. Now the coyotes are much less of a problem. One of the groups makes a special effort to get permission from landowners in the general area, although that is tough since dogs may run a coyote halfway across the county. I for one, don't realy mind, since I like to see the coyote population kept down, but i can understand how some folks might feel. One idea might be to have a special dog season for coyotes after deer season closes. But somehow, i imagine that some folks (not necessarily pointing fingers at folks here) would still find something to complain about.
