The couple in front appear to have collars on? Is that some type of ministry tracking device of sorts. Wondering if they were all shot or trapped.

Those are GPS collars. Provincial wildlife biologists are studying coyotes in proximity to our caribou herds. As I understand it, these particular coyotes (supposed to be 25 there) were taken in the course of three weeks in March in the Gisborne Lake area. Most of these coyotes were not called, but tracked on skidoo and then run down and shot, or in some cases, baited. Not quite my cup of tea, but with the impact they're having on the caribou, its not surprising that they're not held in high esteem around here.

Holy, How many coyotes are you aloud to shoot? Ontario?

I have never heard of bag limits in any jurisdiction.

I have never heard of bag limits in any jurisdiction.

In BC there is no provincial bag limit for coyotes, but some regions do have a limit (at least 1 if I recall correctly, not sure which tho).
