For those saying the coyote did not show up in PA until the 80s or 90s, that's wrong. They were there in the 30s. Maybe earlier.

I'd post the actual images but I can't figure that out.

If I've said it once, I've said it a million times: the far-and-away #1 problem with declining grouse populations in states where there formerly were many is lack of habitat. That's followed closely by state game departments (PGC, I'm looking at you) not creating early successional habitat on their lands and turning "grouse biologist" into a chick job with all the lack of respect and funds chick jobs get (in favor of deer hunting).
