Every May and June a sheep farmer contacts us and ask if we will come out and try to kill some coyotes that are killing their sheep...See the coyotes in May and June need protien for their pups...What an easy kill since sheep won't even run...They just go to the corner...The coyote grabs them by the throat.....
I wonder if you all caught the info provided by Dave Dunbar via the video of the NH study....She, the doctor said that if you throw out a pile of a certain dead animal the coyotes will like it and start to kill it...If the sheep farmer discards any of the lambs, afterbirth, or sheep that die on piles the coytoes will eat it and then go after the living coyotes. Same thing like people who feed the coyotes in neighboorhoods with dog food. That brings in the coyotes, they eat the dog food and then they start to eat the domestic dogs and cats too. Same thing with deer......
So yes you can hunt sheep farms....However it would be better to gain permission and even harvest coyotes in May and June since that when they get a hankering for easy prey. By the way if you want to save a few deer this is the time of the year to kill coyotes since they are also eating fawn and they come in so easy for turkeys...May...Gobbler season,,,, coyote pups.......No wonder they come to the butterball sounds then and many a Spring Gobbler hunters get shots at turkeys..
