Re: Great Animal Escapes- get on TV!!

I may have came across wrongly, I do not shoot wildlife on my property, unless it is in the animal's best interest.

Rabid Raccoons, animals attacking my pets, sick critters that are dying anyways...

Other than that, I allow nature to be left alone.

There is a big hawk that roosts in my hedge, I have seen it eat snakes, but that is the natural food chain in motion, and regardless of my passion for snakes, the hawk is only doing what nature intended it to do, so I refuse to disrupt the hawk from having a meal.

it's besides the point though...
a coydog cannot be relocated it is a hybrid and has no native environment, eliminating it will hopefully end its reign of terror.

I agree, the only reason I ever relocate something is if it attacks people, or pets and proves to be a dangerous animal, the hawk for instance roosted about 200 feet from my house and decided that we needed to leave, dive bombed us every time we left the house. That I simply will not tolerate, so I moved him out of the country and into the deep bush.
