Coyote Population on the Rise

[Spade]

Actually I like them a lot except when they pull apart my above ground irrigation lines
looking for water in the summer.
They kill the mice in the orchard and other nasty little critters and in winter they chase
the deer out of the orchard as well. Deer eat the fruit buds lower down and that makes
for fewer apples in fall.

For I have had too much
Of apple-picking: I am overtired
Of the great harvest I myself desired.
There were ten thousand thousand fruit to touch,
Cherish in hand, lift down, and not let fall.
-Robert Frost

Feral cats are worse that coyotes when it comes to killing off things like song birds and birds that eat a lot of insects. I would rather see a cull on feral cats than coyotes.
