[QUOTE="zoops, post: 484491, member: 790"] I'll take my shot at armchair biology/wildlife management...I really doubt that the average coyote hunter killing a few or a few dozen coyotes over a winter is going to make an appreciable difference in the deer population. There's just never going to be enough people interested in going out in the dead of winter or investing the time and money to make a big enough difference and as most people said unless you really hit them the research shows they just breed more. Dedicated dudes probably help a little in a small area. Dedicated trappers probably help but again hard to scale that to a meaningful level. Habitat is really the only answer, and much of ND just doesn't have much. Let's remember that whitetail deer were rare in most of the state until the last 50-75 years. [/QUOTE]
