I do know that if cattle ranchers here in NE are having a problem with coyotes killing calves that they can call the USDA ant they will send a up a sharp shooter in an airplane to thin the coyotes down. It is also legal in NE to carry a loaded rifle in your vehicle in large part so ranchers can deal with coyotes on their property. However, carrying a loaded shotgun in your vehicle is highly illegal in NE. NE residents also do not need a hunting permit to shoot coyotes and the yotes are legal to shoot year round. I'm just glad that our cold winters and periodic outbreaks of mange help keep the yote numbers in check around here.
