About This Book

The manual combines natural history of timber wolves and coyotes—their habits, tracks, dens, and typical prey—and describes their impact on livestock and game alongside discussion of bounties and control economics. Most of the text provides practical, illustrated instruction on hunting and trapping: hunting with dogs, still hunting, poisoning, a wide range of trap types and set methods (blind, snow, trail, bank, water), scent and bait techniques, regional variations for northern and southern coyotes, equipment and safety, and rules of practice. Anecdotes and diagrams support field guidance and emphasize trapping as a skilled craft.
