Predators Threaten Ranch Stock Across Lone Prairie Area
Winter snow and cold push Lone Prairie ranchers to confront wolves and coyotes feeding near feed yards. Losses include $650 for a Fort St. John area cow destroyed by wolves, plus calves killed by coyotes in broad daylight at Verkerk ranch. Restrictions on hunting due to government rules hinder response, with reporting routed through Kamloops and requiring proof such as photos and witnesses. Community lacks phone service complicating notices, prompting calls to Agriculture Dept and local Cattlemen’s Assoc for action.
