[QUOTE="DoubleRidge, post: 4831328, member: 20594"] I'm posting this question on the QDM page because I can imagine the answers I'd get on the general page. (Kill'em all!...lay them dogs down....blast away.....lol) Question pertains to managing coyotes...so here goes: Can we actually help our fawn survival rates by killing coyotes? Some of the materials I've read lead me to believe it's difficult to impact coyote numbers enough to truly have an impact due to the way they repopulate. And my work schedule would never allow me to run a trap line. So is it even worth shooting one here and one there....fun to shoot I know....but I'm talking about from a QDM standpoint. Or....as land managers should we focus on improving fawning habitat...making it more difficult for coyotes to find and kill fawn's..... improving fawning habitat seems like a more realistic goal verses killing enough yotes to make an impact. Curious to get others opinions on the topic....what's worked....what hasnt.....and just to be clear....I'm not in anyway against shooting yotes.....I'm just wondering if it truly has a positive impact to fawning rates?
