Usually cause those of us who live were the coyotes used to be killed em.
About 8-9 years ago we got 4 on our and the neighbors property. Have only seen one in the area since then. He was about 1/2 mile away and in high gear headed for Wyoming.
OTOH I do know a guy who was having a few problems w/ coyotes, lives south of Deertrail in Bijou creek area. I'll check with him and see if he wants to forward his contact info.
