It's interesting how trying to have a reasoned discussion with trappers can be turned into a rodeo by a handful who must feel threatened, I guess. I would hate to feel that insecure.
If snares are now the issue there is a recent peer reviewed paper, by I assume, your imaginary friend D and Proulx which indicates snares are not humane and goes into detail explaining why. I got mine online and I'm sure you could google it. Having snared coyotes for years I found it very informative.
I hope goosejerky can just ignore all this unfortunate drivel and continue trapping coyotes without any worry of "decimating the population".
