I live in the sand hills of NE, the coyotes around here this year have mange somethin terrible and a lot of them have died off, I have only gone out a few times because it isn't hardly worth it, I have only shot 1 that wasn't mangy. In a few years there will be lots more of them around and they'll have good fur, so if yer thinkin about comin to the sandhills i'd wait a couple of years,
