Ranchers press Ford to lift coyote poison ban
Western ranchers and other interests push to rescind the public land poison ban. EPA head Russell Train urges Ford not to lift it, citing public harm and lack of proven benefit. Knebel and outside groups face pressure as the Nixon era order from February 8, 1972, is reconsidered in late Ford days. Maureen Hinkle of EDF notes previous refusals but says Ford seems swayed toward resuming poison use.
