Coyotes in Their Economic Relations

"Coyotes in Their Economic Relations" by David E. Lantz is a report that explores how coyotes influenced agriculture in early 1900s America. Published by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the document dives into the coyote's life, from where they lived to what they ate. Lantz shows how coyotes hurt ranchers and sheep farmers by killing livestock, causing significant financial trouble. The book also investigates ways to control coyote numbers, like traps, poison, and fences to protect animals that farmers raise, so that coyotes can become natural predators.
