This is funny, just this morning as I was putting on my boots I was thinking how much I miss the old Bugs Bunny cartoons! Of course that includes old Wily E !
Seriously tho I bet that Sheriffs office was getting a lot of calls about coyotes. Me, I'd shoot the yote !
Humor is often a great way to get a point across. I think I would be inclined to vote to keep someone like that in office.

Living in an urban area, and having reoccuring coyote problems, I have found the solution.
In my area you can't hunt them (well maybe with a bow but that seems to be a gray area so I'm avoiding it for now). The law says you can trap them, on your property. But they have to be live traps that don't harm the animal. I use a large cage trap.
The problem is what to do with them when you catch them. A politician, yea I know who'd have thought, figured out that relocating them just moved your problem somewhere else. So your options are to release them where caught or kill them at the location.
Local animal control will not take live coyotes off your hands. But they will remove dead ones. So, I simply kill them on site and call the animal control to haul them off. The folks from animal control never seen to happy about it, but it's all legal and above board.
Most folks around here won't deal with the problem themselves so they usually hire someone to do it. The problem there is that the cost can get up there and after a short while they don't want to pay.
There was a time when there was a bounty on them. But the peta freaks put a end to that.

Too funny.
Jeepnik had the same problem with raccoons while in Charleston WV. Not legal to kill in the city, once you traped them you could only release them on State Property. After I got caught releasing them on the Capitol compound across the river (they told me not to do it again) I took the other 5 and released them at the park superintendents house 2 miles away.

Doctors for Sensible Gun Laws "first do no harm" - gun control LAWS lead to far more deaths than 'easy access' ever could.
