So coyotes are such a nuisance all over the country that they need to be shot on sight and left to rot? I think a lot of people just like "killin' stuff." Coyotes are not an invasive species. Deer are running rampant around here (in the metro areas), I can't believe coyotes can be left to rot while deer cannot (not that it should be done, ever). I guess some animals really are "more equal." I'm not an "activist", don't get me wrong, I hunt, but I eat what I kill and I acknowledge the fact that I am taking a life. I just don't see how people talk about ethics and whatnot, while killing certain animals (coyotes, possums, armadillos) and leaving them to rot. I mean, I've seen people post on THR about killing certain animals just because they're ugly. Are you kidding me?
