USDA coyote eradication from helicopter?

62? Do they clean it up? As in, remove the carcasses? Or, is that the responsibility of the land owner? Because, just leaving the carcasses will simply invite more coyotes which ......... seems counterproductive.

No they don't do any clean up. Couple years later they were just as thick again. Opossums are the only thing I've ever seen eat a dead coyote.

One of the ranches around my place has hired a guy that uses cyanide bombs. They definitely work, but it’s somewhat of an uneasy feeling walking around in the area where they are planted.

Just don't bite the funny posts sticking up out of the flagged, marked areas with cyanide signs lol.

Some people require warnings on tide pods and other various items.

I'd pay $100 to ride in that helo and shoot yotes, all day.

For a $100 you might have to sit in the heli on the ground and shoot.

Don’t bite the sponge and pull up.
That’s the only way to set it off.

Think I would rather not have the usda around my places.

Just give the farmer the funds that the helo mission is going to cost.

Saw yesterday they were going to shoot wild cattle again from helos down along the Rio Grande. Drought is so bad cattle are going through fences to get water and conservation groups are hollering their destroying habitat. Don't know if y'all have ever seen cattle that's truly wild but they are some mean dudes. Run you down and stomp you into a bloody mudhole.years ago ranches would have hunts down there .folks would show up with their elephant guns to knock those old bulls down. They said they are a threat to people (duh) so they must be tramping illegals and We know you can't have that. Ranchers wanted time to try to round them up but gov won't wait.

Some friends in the cattle business are losing cows because of coyotes. This is in Oklahoma. They're going to have the USDA come in with a helicopter to reduce the number of coyotes in the surrounding area.

I've seen pigs hunted via snipers in a helicopter. (Texas) And I've heard of the USDA dropping poison from helicopters for skunk eradication.

I wonder how they do it here (OK) from a helicopter for coyotes? If they simply were to drop poison, how will they protect domestic dogs, sheep, cats from being poisoned?

I've checked the subject on their website and they're intentionally vague.

Headline I saw this morning is their going to be shooting wild cattle .

Need to allow more coyote hunters on their property. Simple solution.

Must be Russians or former Russians. I hear that they’re very good with those kind of things….
