In Butcher's Union Co. v. Crescent City Co., 111 U.S. 746, 762 (1884), J. Bradley in his concurring opinion, stated in part, " The right to follow any of the common occupations of life is an inalienable right, it was formulated as such under the phrase 'pursuit of happiness' in the declaration of independence..."

In Vivian I. Volvar, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Fishers Island Lobstermen's Association, Inc., Fishers Island Conservancy, Inc., Movant-Amici Curiae (2003), United States Court of Appeals, Second Circuit, citing several SCOTUS rulings, stated, " The right to pursue a lawful calling has long been recognized as a fundamental right, see, e.g., Allgeyer v. Louisiana, 165 U.S. 578, 589, 17 S.Ct. 427, 41 L.Ed. 832 (1897)
( The 'liberty' mentioned in [ the Fourteenth Amendment ] is deemed to embrace the right of the citizen to be free in the enjoyment of all his faculties; to be free to use them in all lawful ways; to live and work where he will; [ and ] to earn his livelihood by any lawful calling; to pursue any livelihood or avocation."), and one that is protected by the Privileges and Immunities Clause. see Hicklin, 437 U.S. at 524, 98 S.Ct. 2482 ( Clause protects nonresident against discriminatory regulation of ability " to ply their trade, practice their occupation, or pursue a common calling within the State."); United Bldg., 465 U.S. at 219, 104 S.Ct. 1020 ( " Certainly, the pursuit of a common calling is one of the most fundamental of those privileges protected by the Clause. Many, if not most, of our cases expounding the Privileges and Immunites Clause have dealt with this basic and essential activity.") (citation omitted)." See, Allgeyer v. Louisiana, 165 U.S. 578 (1897); Hicklin v. Orbeck, 437 U.S. 518 (1978); United Building Trades v. Mayor of Camden, 465 U.S. 208 (1984).

These are known as your Freedom of Choice - aka your "pursuit of happiness," and it applies to your constitutional rights as a lawful commercial fur harvester.

No it was 92 . The doctor here said it was the highest record for her of someone actually living through that. Potassium has been a real pain the butt. Too high or too low will get you in trouble. Kidney failure has all kinds of ups and downs. I set a few records for these doctors, I hear "never seen that before" lots of times . Some med students even wrote a paper on me with some of the things I go through. Been interesting way to live

I spend a lot of time educating landowners. I try to get them to think ahead and hire me BEFORE the killing starts. An ounce of prevention…

The best ranchers have me come in a month or two before the babies hit the ground. I can slip in and set real sneaky sets. The coyotes are less on edge. They are acting natural. They are vulnerable.

I’m convinced that once they start killing livestock, they get more paranoid. They get focused on only the livestock. They are more likely to run straight in and kill, eat and be gone. Less likely to work a set on the way in or out. Hunting by more by sight. It all makes trapping them harder.


Plus… an overlooked part of starting early is the fact that I inevitably bounce some of the most paranoid coyotes out of the area. I have seen many dig outs leaving a high fence ranch when I start catching coyotes. The smart ones know to leave when they see/hear others get caught. I’d love to catch that coyote. It is probably a killer, but I’ll take the win every time.

I hope this helps.



Slim Pederson always said (many) coyotes know they're not supposed to be killing sheep, and they act accordingly when doing so!


I really promote prevention to my producers. I can kill the killer, but it wont bring back the stock its already killed. Give me free rein at least from February through May first (preferably just year round). I wont guarantee we wont have any problems, but I bet we have a lot less over the summer! Most of my sheep guys get that. Its some of the neighbors that dont. That can cause some real problems and can really make the task harder. Having neighbors that arent on board is a pretty big issue and frankly, the biggest hurdle I face in my area.

Late summer/early fall though is when I always start getting nervous. Those family groups start bouncing around, really covering ground. Places that havent seen a coyote in months will all of a sudden have a family group move in from miles away. Those pups are big, and they're learning how to hunt. Can be some big wrecks before you even know they're there. When the phone rings in August/September I always answer it apprehensively!

In fact, Im working on two groups right now that have popped up "out of nowhere". They havent killed yet, and hopefully we wont give them a chance too. Thats where knowing your country, knowing the places that just seem to attract coyotes comes into play. I keep pretty close tabs on some areas, waiting for the inevitable group that will move in there.

I sometimes put small white cheap styrofoam cups over mine. I figure if eye appeal works those white cups will.

These get sold off as first come first served. Looks the the DNR website crashed again. It happens every year. You would think they would get the ducks in a row. Son purchased a tag before it crashed and he emailed them and hasn't heard a word if he even got one. But they took his money. We need a change.
