Talk my wife into the importance of hunting coyotes. She has an infatuation with wolves, so I'm sure it stems off that. I'd like to go hunt something that is a bit of a challenge instead of blind and deaf hogs year round, but she got plum upset when I mentioned to her about wanting to go shoot one. I don't have any livestock or other animals to protect, so I need a pretty solid reason to convince her of the need of thinning them out in Collin County.

They torcher fuzzy little bunnies before they eat them! You can hear the bunnies crying for miles! Or, guess what, I'm going hunting! -
Make her a nice fur coat from them. she will then be a believer.

I bet our great-grandfathers are up there looking down, shaking their heads in disappointment and amazement. Imagine someone 50-100 years ago having to convince their wife the need to kill something, or even thinking of justifying it.
Tell her you're going hunting and to have supper ready when you get home.

I could give you a legit reason for thinning out coyotes but they are few. First if the area is farmed for livestock then a high population of yotes could be a threat during calving season. Second is if the place is high fenced then the control of em within the property would benefit fawns. However if its low fence then other coyotes will naturally move in to fill the niche left by the ones shot.
So I can't help ya out besides the reason is that its just plain fun to do. Hope it works out good luck and shoot straight.Comment

They cross fences to hunt with no regard to property rights.Comment

Coyotes can be a huge problem if not taken care of(hunted)... they are one of the very few animals that you can kill 75% of the population off and they can be right back up in normal numbers the next year.
They are a blast to hunt and need to be controlled!Comment
