[QUOTE="Mike Belt, post: 4541825, member: 69"] As I understand it, you may be doing more harm than good shooting coyotes depending on which ones you end up shooting. In a given area you have a dominant pair. This alpha pair does most of the breeding while at the same time limiting the breeding of others. When you take out this dominant pair there is a race to fill that position. During this time frame all of the others are free to breed. You take out 2 dogs (the dominant ones) and several breeding pairs temporarily replace them and the end result is more than you started with. Depending on the temperament of the new dominant pair along with available food sources you may have more dogs in your area or more dogs spreading out into new areas. [/QUOTE]
