I walked with my Dad on several Coyote Roundups when I was a youngun'. This was in eastern Kansas back in the 50's. I don't think they are allowed or legal anymore but it was a great way to clean out a bunch of coyotes in a pretty good size area. It sounds like "they" need to bring the Roundups back!

today in willobughy ohio there was a full grown guy attacked
!!! I just caught a few words on the news about it, he was in the cleveland metro parks where they are also having big problems with spring deer deaths lots of young dead ones apparent wasting away from lack of food and killing of trees plants from over grazing of the starving deer... guess the coyotes should have plenty of food but the guy was a bit tastier looking I guess... (news said they were wating about rabbies so they must have gotten the thing.)

My son and I came home last fall to find a coyote in the lane acting drunk as a skunk, I don't know if it was the latter stage of rabies or not, but it was definitely sick with something. The 12 guage took care of that.
With no natural predetor left on the farm to thin the pack, we have coyotes in spades. We had a friend trap them out 2 years ago but the population is back up again this year. Since Iowa no longer pays a bounty for coyotes and fur becoming less popular even trappers aren't interested in them.
Having seen what a pack can do to a calf, I don't care how tough I think my GSD is, I'd rather shoot or trap coyotes then to send my pet out after them.
On the other hand, it is cool to listen to the coyotes sing.

I was accustomed to seeing coyotes out in the country (60 miles south of Dallas), but hadn't seen one since moving back into town about two and half years ago . . . until yesterday morning. I saw one that had been run over in Lewisville, but of course, it was pretty close to the Trinity River bottoms.

Coyotes Cause Park Closing
(4/20/05) — An area of parkland east of Cleveland has been closed because of threatening coyotes. The North Chagrin Reservation of the Cleveland Metroparks was closed to the public after two coyotes attacked a bicyclist and a pet dog during the weekend.
Park officials think the coyotes may be protecting a litter of pups. One of the two coyotes was shot and killed by rangers and will be tested for rabies.
