With all due respect Aldo, you must live in a bubble if you have never heard of anyone shooting coyotes until now. Coyotes around here subsist on anything they can get their teeth into. As a bit of fod for thought, the PA game commission has done radio collar studies on whitetailed deer fawns, and coyotes were the number two predator on young coyote fawns. Black bear are number one, I know we shouldn't shoot them either, ever read Genesis 9:3??
