Nothing to see 75-100 deer grazing on a late summer 2 mile drive across our single lane county road .
Then the coyotes showed up. 3 summers back we got 10 hogs off a 32acre meadow that normally yeilded 35 per summer.Same proportion
on the rest of the farm.Last summer we got none.The few we saw were around buildings and in the edges of my yard where they are protected.
Last summer and through the winter between shooting and trapping
we killed 11 yotes in a 50acre area .Fawn crop looked a bit better this year and we are getting a few hogs back .
I let people hunt hogs and yotes if ya care to contact me.
Forgot to mention that red foxes have been protected here for
over 70 years and we had some nice ones . They are gone too.
