Re: Sad Time at My House

I'd say those people have more money than sense.

And, some people import them in...when my parents were living in GA, my Dad
told me that a hunt club brought some in for sport. Of course, they are
intelligent and were soon all over the place getting into domesticated
animals.

OH ZEM!!!! How horribly SAD!. You poor thing. I am sending you so many
hugs and prayers. I will light a candle in my garden outside tonight in
memory of your precious babies. Man, if I lived closer I'd be out there
with the local law enforcment shooting them. I don't believe in shooting
animals..but my husband and kids know that the ONE animal I would shoot
is a coyote. They carry rabies a lot of times and they can destroy a
goat or sheep herd in one night if you have a large pack of them. In
fact, my husband shot one that was rabid in the barn once (in the middle
of the day...which is odd for a coyote to be seen during the day...and
it was sitting up on top of a few bales of hay and didn't even try to
run when Robert walked in....so he knew something wasn't right with it).
Coyotes have been moving closer and closer into the city in the past few
years too. In some midwestern towns, people shoot them and take them in
to the county office and they actually PAY

 people by the pelt because they are trying to thin them out.

them,
so I guess that's what the policeman is going to do.
