I alsoread an effective way of killing coyotes is to take a spounge, soak it in deer blood, hang in in a tree with fishing line. I read to make it high enough that the coyote needs to jump to get it. The fisshing line braeks and the coyote takes the spounge and eats it. They are unable to pass the spounge and end up a dead coyote. May not be a good way, but may be an effective way.

wait a minute...forget the deer herd.
what about farmers?
I know that all of the cattle farmers around me have had at least two or three calves that have been taken by coyotes over the last few years.

Not so sure if the sponge deal really works from a biological perspective. The yote would instinctively chew the sponge into somewhat smaller pieces. Cellulose (the material most sponges are made of) will be partially digested, but the rest would probably pass through.


Maybe putting a sponge soaked in deer blood with some razor blades in it would work if you could get the yote to swallow the blades as well and induce some Gastrointestinal bleeding!

Personally, I'd rather shoot 'em that way I know they're down.

Actually their were many open meadows in the US, as well as the Great Plains before the Europeans got here...Native Americans actually set fires to open woods land and create some of these...
