State hunters take 442 coyotes during most recent season

I'm a big animal lover but if predators come around people , that's not natural. In the wild , almost all animals will avoid humans. If they overcome this natural fear of humans because of overexposure and start hunting our pets and attacking children (which has happened recently in MA) , then they should be shot.

I didn't know they had a coyote hunting season but as was mentioned above , with no natural predators , the coyotes will multiply far faster than they would in a normal environment so people restore that balance by hunting them when they get too plentiful or too bold. Even as an animal lover , I can understand and agree with that.

Everyone who had a hunting license this fall was welcome to shoot one coyote as well. That is the regular season. I do believe that certain licensed individuals can hunt coyotes until midnight, using night vision equipment, in certain areas with large pops. of coyotes
