Default RE: Coyotes can't keep the deer population down?

I really don't dought it.
We found a den site still active last summer it had lots of deer bones around it.
Many were fawns.
I personaly have shot 6 youts while they were chasing deer in deer season.
I have a good friend that traps them 2003 take was 15
so far in 2004 take is 30.
Sheep farmer in the area has lost a lot of lambs to youts.
Dec came in & said wild dogs so he started shooting them along with some of his friends Dec came back & tried to trap the rest on the den out.
