It hasn't happened but was just wondering how many Utah hunters would be for or opposed to a predator managment fee like the one Nevada currently charges of $3.00? The whole idea for this proposition would be to help set up a statewide $20 bounty on the coyotes. With the letter Kaparowitz just issued, the state has issued almost $3 million for managment of the coyotes over the last five years. I am not the smartest but I can do simple math so here it is.
$3 mil divide by 5 = $600,000.00 per year
he claims they killed 1700 coyotes last year alone, so lets use that as our base $600,000.00 divide by 1700 = $352.94 per coyote
if the general public were to kill 1700 coyotes @ $20 per coyote it would cost the state $34,000.00 per year resulting in $170,000 over five years now take into consideration I personally do not belive they would kill this many per year, but if it did, and this is simple math it would be a way more cost effective way to help control the coyote population. I think they are using Obamamathmatics101.It would also be a way to pump more money back into the local economy ie gas stations sporting good stores ect... would you go out more often if you could pickup $20 towards your gas once in a while? so my question is would you be for or against a predator managment fee? If this was something to happen I think we need a seperate account setup for this it would need to be audited quarterly to keep from getting too many hands in the kidde if you know what i mean. Lets hear your feedback
