Thanks, Turney. I didn't realize that it was still allowed. If I remember correctly, there was a video of a chase shown on the news in Calgary a few years ago, where Russian Wolf Hounds were used. There was a mini campaign to ban the practice. I guess they weren't entirely successful.
The method that I'm talking about is not an actual full on chase but where the dog is out in a coulee and actually entices the coyotes to get within gun range by barking, chasing and running from them. On the video, some of the coyotes are so focused on the dog that they totally ignore the hunter.
Is the permit from the Ag Fieldman intended to support this method or the actual chasing and eventual capture of the coyotes by the hounds?
