I got access to about 6000 acres of prime hunting area because of the coyotes killing the cows and calves when they were being born. I have saved the ranchers a lot of money by helping to protect their livestock. I suggest most people to learn coyote calling so they can also gain access. I also like to help protect the deer herd near my mountain cabin. Here is a pull quote from my web pages:
A VERY FINE LINE.... I am very careful to only "control" the ground squirrel population. I have to walk a very fine line. If I shoot too many, they might not survive and the field will be barren. If I leave too many in the field, the rancher might use poison and kill them all. A surviving population of ground squirrels is a good thing and besides, I don't want to work myself out of a job.
The same goes for coyotes.
