Coyote Control Drive Backed by Teton Woolgrowers
The Teton County Woolgrowers Association endorsed continuing the coyote predator control program at an American Legion meeting. Polls would authorize a five cent per head levy on sheep owners to fund hunting and trapping, with funds split for a state hunter, air coyote shooting, local control work, and emergency security. A 51 percent petition approval would trigger the levy, and initial spring payments were tentatively set at 214 cents per head plus pledges from three ranchers to cover shortfalls. Officers for the coming year were elected: Ed Yeager president, Hugh Robinson vice president, Raymond Kelly secretary, Bryan Corbett treasurer, with Paul Kropp and Tom Stokes as directors.
