I hunt PA, NH and VT and I have noticed a change in the last 15 years or so. The coyote population for some reason has exploded. For obvious reasons the bird of prey population is way up, soon they will need to start controlling them too; that will be something to watch! I see more red fox killed on the road and even see some moving during the day so I assume their numbers are up.
I am seeing fewer raccoon, skunk and opossum sign? Are the coyote keeping their numbers down too? They are hard on nests but I suppose the coyote's are too.
There is a lot of competition out their for our game birds. Just my observations.
