I dont know from where you got that fact, so I wont dispute it. Out here we have relativley few foxes, but LOTS of coyotes. Our annual coyote hunt, 140+ teams, spotted over 800 in a 3 day hunt, and if memory serves, harvested 292. Thats a lot of coyotes. I know that I personally took 25 or 30 in the normal course of business. I see them every day, and know what they do to wildlife and calves. You manage them your way, we'll do it our way. Oh yeah, I really doubt that any coyote, unless it was brain damaged, would kill a skunk.
