Besides, wolves rarely kill healthy sheep -- they usually only go after the sick ones, which the farmer gets rid of, anyways. There was a much simpler problem to the wolf/coyote issue: lithium. Lace a carcass with lithium and let 'em eat up. The illness that follows is so severe that it only takes that one meal for them to associate being violently sick with eating mutton.

I do hunt coyotes for sport. They are smaller than wolves and even the coyotes will pack up and go after healthy calves. Sure they will take the sick ones first if any are available, but they are not picky at all. Any rancher around here will give you access to hunt all the coyotes you want. They get around the increased deer populations buy charging people to hunt those animals.
