Title: Mount Forest Coyote Cull
Post by: Axeman on March 07, 2021, 11:10:56 PM
Sooooooo in a recent edition of a local publication..."The Biz Bull", it was reported that one of our councillors was asking for a coyote cull. Apparently coyotes have been seen in town (Mount Forest) and have....been seen approaching HOUSES! (*Gasp....oh the humanity! Will somebody think of the children -- the hysterical woman on the Simpsons)....and of course the reflex reaction was to call for a cull.


I have put a call into the councillor to get a better sense of what's going on and I am looking to find a biologist who works with coyotes to chat with as I Marshall the arguments against a cull. I doubt that it will come to a cull given that it will cost but frankly, I'd like to get rid of the open season on coyotes and just stop with the reflex reaction.


Share your thoughts?

 I’m just spit-balling here, but what if you got a band together called the “Coyotes” so that there is confusion in town about whether the animal, or the band was spotted. Arrange a duel concert with the Bare Naked Ladies because we all know which band will win. Then you could publish an article that essentially states the outcome … Bare Naked Ladies trounce the town’s Coyotes. That way people won’t be as frightened and … who knows, maybe the streets will get a whole lot more interesting.

lol wait.....we don't all know which band would win....thems fighting words....


(1) I'm a freaking awesome guitarist with a pretty decent voice


(2) BNL haven't deserved to call themselves BNL since Page left -- although I'll admit he sucks on his own too.


(3) You're forgetting the power of the home town crowd....


Good idea though....I have a BNL story though....from back when Page was part of the band.


lol
