- W48911567 abstract "My career as an extension wildlife specialist and a university administrator has allowed me to monitor both the public and private sectors' perspectives on coyotes (Canis larrans) and their associated management policies. Selected experiences described herein illustrate the problems (current and future) that characterize emotionally-charged conflicts like those typified by coyote control efforts. When Dale Rollins first approached me with an invitation to pa~ticlpate in this symposium, was unsure about other commitments, but hopeful that could return to Texas, see old fiiends and be a part of the program. By the time we got around to finalizing the arangements In early August, Dale let the other shoe drop by saying Oh, by the way, you have to wite a paper and it has to be In no later than September 1 In owfirst discussion, he described a panel with Bill Sims and Dede Amentrout. Naturally, assumed we would each dcl~velsome prepared remasks and then share esperlences and obse~vations whlch, ifwol-lhy of note, would be recorded in some form of a panel su1nmai-y statement. Apparently not SO. As set about the task of preparing this manuscript, began to lulntnage through papers, contact colleagues whom had bequeathed my old predator files to when moved into adm~nistration full time, and go through old calendars from my speclal1st days. It didn't take long to realize that could spend a great deal of time chronicling events and laws that have already been recorded by others. In fact, Dr. Dale Wade, whom consider to be 1 of the best expelts on wlldlife damage control anywhere, has already done this estremely well in at least two of hls publications (Wade 1980, 1982) With that in mind, decided to address events and activities that have personally been a part of with respect to predator polit~cs and to share thoughts and pel-ceptlons as related to current issues facing agriculture across our nation. As the saying goes are my own opinions and do not necessarily reflect those of anyone have ever worked for. Early career influences In 1964, began my graduate career at Iowa State University. The Leopold Committee Report on Predator and Rodent Control in the United States was made public, declaring that the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service-Animal Damage Control program was mdisc~immate, nonselective and excessive in its predator control programs. The report did, however, vlew Compound 1080 as a relatively humane and effective means of coyote control (Leopold 1964). must admit that, as graduate student of the 1960s, was not pa~ticularly impacted by the Leopold Report except as a source of intellectual debate. had grown up in a family where wildlife was a somce of food for the table as much as anything else. One of my prized possessions today is a membership card for my great grandfather in the Illinois Feda-atton of Sportsmen's Clubs from 1930, on the back of which is a Sportsman's Creed. The Creed exhorts members to obey laws, show respect for property, protection of wildlife and, as a last enby I will do my best to kill a pest. That was the natural order of things from the time was a child. In 197 1, the Cain report, Predator Control197 1 was produced. This report indicated that chemical controls were likely inhumane and nonselective and recommended that individuals with predator problems be instructed on the use of leghold traps as the majotmethod of damage control (Cain et. al. 1972) rctnemher being sttuck by the fact that both the Leopold and Cain reports condcmncd existing prcdator control programs, but came to somewhat dilli-rcnt conclus~ons on the relationship between chem~cal and non-chemical controls. Some of my colleagues In graduate school with dill-el-ent backg-ounds than nilne took these reports at face value Today, many of them are full profcssors In w~ldlifc dcpa~.tmcnts at major un~vcrsit~es. have often vondc~.cd vlicthcr or not these early cmcr espenences ~nlluenccd the~r attitudes towards prcdator management as a part of thc~r profession.
