COYOTE CONTROL
Proving once again how dangerous it is when the Federal Government joins forces with the environmental whackos. The same combination explains why we import over 50% of our oil instead of exploiting the vast reserves we have.The Sierra Club and the U..S. Forest Service were presenting an alternative to Wyoming ranchers for controlling the coyote population. It seems that after years of the ranchers using the tried and true methods of shooting and/or trapping the predators, the tree-huggers had a more humane' solution.
What they proposed was for the animals to be captured alive. The males would then be castrated and let loose again. Therefore the population would be controlled. This was ACTUALLY proposed to the Wyoming Wool and Sheep Grower's Association by the Sierra Club and the USFS.
All of the ranchers thought about this amazing idea for a couple of minutes.. Finally, an old guy in the back of the conference room stood up, tipped his hat back and said:"Son, I don't think you understand our problem. "Those coyotes ain't f**kin' our sheep - they're eatin' 'em!"
You should have been there to hear the roar of laughter.
