A few years ago, the Sierra Club and the U.S.Forest Service was presenting an alternative to Wyoming ranchers for controlling the coyote population. It seems that after years of the ranchers tried and true methods of shooting and or trapping the predator, the tree-huggers had a more humane solution. What they proposed was for the animals to be caputued alive, the males castrated and let loose again and the population would therefore be controlled. This was actually proposed to the Wyoming Wool and Sheep Grower's Association by the Sierra Club and the USFS.<br>All of the ranchers thought about this amazing idea for a couple of minutes. Finall, an old boy in the back stood up, tipped his hat back and said, &quot;Son, I don't think you understand the problem here. Those coyotes ain't having sex (f word replaced) with our sheep - they're eatin' 'em.&quot;<br><br><br>shortround out
