I am asking this as someone who will openly admit to knowing next to nothing about the subject so was curious enough to ask on here. It is my understanding that coyote hunters generally do not keep the meat and will only keep the pelt if anything. There seems to be little restrictions on hunting them when I look through my state's fish and game regulations. I guess what I'm trying to ask is, is coyote hunting generally promoted as good for the ecosystem or for pest control? What are the benefits that it provides? I'm sure there's probably many and I am in no way trying to criticize coyote hunting and am in fact considering it myself but basically why is it more acceptable to hunt coyotes and not keep the meat as opposed to most other game animals? With a deer for example that would be considered morally reprehensible(and rightfully so) by almost anyone in the hunting community to kill a buck or doe and then discard the meat. Thanks everyone
