Glen Rock Rancher Credits Bell Collar Coyote Control
A Washe rancher from Glen Rock claims he saved his cattle from coyotes by placing bells on the necks of many steers. Since belled, his herd losses dropped to zero in two months, a stark contrast to prior years when losses averaged a steer per day. He notes coyotes spurn poisoned carcasses and that shooting remains the only viable method, though occasional roundups occur. Coyotes trouble Washington and Oregon farms, often stealing chickens and pesting farmyards.
