Coyote Bounties: A Misguided Approach to Population Control
In North Dakota, wildlife biologists like Doug Leier argue against coyote bounties, citing their ineffectiveness in long-term population control. Despite local frustrations over coyote impacts on livestock and wildlife, biologists stress that bounties only create short-term dips and fail to address root causes like habitat changes. Recent studies confirm that heavy culling is ineffective due to surviving females high reproduction rates and big litters. North Dakota has no plans for bounties, instead emphasizing the importance of better land management and targeted efforts for sustainable predator balance.
