CoyWolf

Not sure this belongs here but I was browsing threw the news and saw this.

What are these idiots thinking of? A genetically bred animal to control deer in suburbs and New York city parks.
I may have read this wrong but I don't think I did, an animal that was bred to control White tail Deer in parks around New York city and other urban areas and the park managers welcome their help in controlling the herds.
Maybe these are the animal tracks I saw during hunting season and no deer in the area.

Now breeding those, even if it started way back, was flat stupid. Love the part they've expanded to include Ohio.
Just what we need. Smarter more vicious coyotes.
Shame that back in those days Jurassic Park wasn't out yet. Would have taught them about messin with Ma Nature. :grin:

It is ridiculous what folks come up with.

Maybe they have nice pelts though... :lol:

That's an idea.

Ya, just what we need, Not! K.I.S.S. Keep it simple stupid! Mankind sometimes does the dumbest things and this is just another one of them, IMO. Which reminds me, I'm going to go by the IDFG Dept. and check in on the DNA sample of that last animal I put down predating on my property this spring, one that I was pretty sure was a wolf/coyote hybrid of the more natural born type.

Boy I bet that's the truth

I thought the interbreeding occurred naturally starting in South Eastern Canada and they migrated to the Northeast US. It's really not a bad thing IMO. They are still considered coyotes from the Fish and Game laws perspective, meaning unlimited bag limits and extended seasons. It would have been a lot worse if they forced real wolf introductions in those eastern states, which would have come with legal protection.

A natural bred coyote would be a little easier to accept but a genetically cross breed with a wolf is a little different since the tree huggers don't want any type of hunting activity but want to complain when the bamby population gets out of hand and they can't control it with out hunting they have to come up with a cunning killing machine that will eat anything they can sink their teeth into is a little different. First pets and then I can see them taking human babies. Imagine being in a city park playing with your baby and a Coywolf comes scampering along and snatches your baby off the blanket and heads for the bushes with it for it's next meal. Just like bamby has adapted to living in close proximity with humans so do they.
