Default RE: Coyotes, what to do with them?

crittergiter, when i first looked at the pic i thought for a second you had your scope attached to your gun with none other than camo duck tape, but its just a camo wrap right? how much affect do you guys think taking out a few coyotes has on the deer population? my thoughts were always if you only took out a couple, the ones that were left would have a surplus of food and over-reproduce, having larger and larger litters until they filled the gap made by the hunting, and if you were lucky to get all of them from an area, which would be very difficult to do in the first place, wouldnt they only be replaced by packs and loners from surrounding areas? especially if your area gets to a point where theresa high deer population and low predator population? also, eliminating the yotes from an area might open the floodgates to something even worse, wolves. just a thought, what are your guys opinions? i dont mean to hijack the post, if you want i can start a new one, just tryin to get some feedback.
