we have a shite ton of coyotes around here and no one is out killing any of them. I live next to and around some pretty salty old school ranchers, and no issues with the coyotes, know why? they all have great fencing and repair it constantly. Chicken pens etc are all top notch. just an fyi. No matter how many you kill they will be back next season and most likely will get into that rickety chicken coop again.

This, but rednecks gonna strew poison around and kill every critter in a ten mile radius except the coyotes, who are too smart to fall for the trap.

Because there's enough food "out there" for them. If the food supply runs out for them, get ready.

I'm calling bullshite. Unless they have like 6 strands WITH a hot one on the bottom OR 5 or so hot wires, coyotes can get in. Most cattlemen don't spend that much time/money for their fences.

I did for a smaller goat pasture and it worked but as someone mentioned, a donkey is the best protection. They won't even let a dog in the field.

True. If their population is where the food supply can sustain they have low numbers but if some die off, mother nature somehow kicks in and litters increase. Pretty remarkable.
