With a 'healthy' population of coons AND coyotes.

Well if hunters & trappers were paid a better price for hides there'd be less & less problems .

Surely there are better solutions than- If It Moves, Kill It.
Dropping bait worked before, hopefully it will work again.

Nothin to do with if it moves Robbie , has to do with overpopulation & sicknesses , common sence just like it would be in your chicken coop if you let it get overpopulated & never culled .Dropping of bait stopped spread after all deceased died off a terrible death of rabies & distemper . The bait doesn't cure rabies just helps inoculate others against getting it .

Lots of people talking about it today... haven't seen a coon since the spring when we found several with distemper + a few bodies out in the woods. Was hoping there wouldn't be enough left to spread rabies, but one was from Cayuga... still trying to figure out exactly where.
