Unusually Large Number of Coyote Pups Bagged by Massey Boys
Everett ad Jay Maney from Island Park returned after a record catch of coyote pups on the Reader family ground. In ten days Massey boys bagged thirty five pups in two dens with thirteen in one den and a single large litter fought fiercely. Trappers note mothers rarely exceed six or seven pups. Pup dens lie in mountain holes and are removed with wires. Sheep ranchers praise the catch for reducing lamb losses during lambing season.
