sampotter Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 The Sierra Club and the U. S. Forest Service were presenting an alternative to the Wyoming ranchers for controlling the coyote population. It seems that after years of the ranchers using the tried and true method of shooting or trapping the predators, the Sierra Club had a "more humane" solution to this issue. What they were proposing was for the animals to be captured alive. The males would then be castrated and let loose again. This was ACTUALLY proposed by the Sierra Club and by the U. S. Forest Service. All of the ranchers thought about this amazing idea for a couple of minutes. Finally an old fellow wearing a big cowboy hat in the back of the conference room stood up, tipped his hat back and said,"Son, I don't think you understand our problem here. These coyotes ain't screwin' our sheep, they're eatin' 'em!"The meeting never really got back to order. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
