c. E. Beebe, government trap
ger, has been working the Babb
section and no doubt will soon
get to other districts where coy
ote losses have been heavy.
One grower reports the loss of
60 head of lambs, mostly by coy
otes, this season. Several small
covers in the Heart Butte sec
ton have lost as much as 5000
worth of ewes and lambs because
o f coyotes. Most growers are
bringing in many less lambs than
they locked. The United States
Fish and Wildlife Service will
pay the salary of trappers FIVE
months of the year and will pro-
vide h e necessary equipment
and trapping supplies if growers
or local organizations will pay the
trappers salary for the remain
Ing seven months.
The situation has become so
serious that every sheep owner
interested in staying in business
is much concerned. Many grow
ers have already paid two cents
per head of animals owned t o.
ward a fund for the hiring of
trappers, b u t collections have
been inadequate.
If trappers are to be employed
in sufficient time to do an effec-
tive job, more funds will be
needed. Fred Getty h a con-
scented to serve as treasurer for
the growers association formed
to get action regarding livestock
losses from coyotes or other pred
atory animals. Livestock grow
ers who want to get some help
should pay their two cents per
head to the fund from the pro-
ceeds of their fall sales.
