Taxi -Ccli.r Comeany, emphasized ihe sel2c;lvi ty 5f the ~ 3i 1 3r and i;j ability ro remove depredating coyoces wnich could not be taken by conventional techniques . H2 testi fi ed that the on1 y experi enc2 required for successful use <strong>of</strong> the collar was recognition <strong>of</strong> the circumstances where i t bwou1,d work. :+e had conducted t2s ts <strong>of</strong> the ? ? col lar under the FWS experiment21 Qse peni t sn 13 ji tes in i exas in 1978, nine <strong>of</strong> wnich were i~c~~ssful. Ye acknowledged tbt hh eiid bjased the results in favor <strong>of</strong> success by rejecting aro~os~d sits, e. g . , sporadic ki 11 iigl over a wid? area, ,were rhe coll ar ;vas nor . - 1 ikely to 1,vork. He s;ated that li I coyote was kil ling consistently in a 1 ocal i zed area, use <strong>of</strong> the call ar Idas more I i :el y -2 be successf31. 85. Mr. McSri de testifi~d rhai to his knowledge, the collar nad COL beea tested under open range conditions and thai because <strong>of</strong> ;he difficulty <strong>of</strong> targeting attacks to coi l ~red 1 ivestock, the co1 1 ar was unlikely io be effective in such situations. He rejecred s~ggestions that coyotes seemed to sense something d:ffer?nr ahout collared animals and thus declined to attack them, or moved elsewhere, asserting that coyotes had killed lambs wearing bells and thai if it was that easy to discourage coyote attacks, coyote predation would not be a problem. He also rejected criticism that targeting coyote -
zttacks cn collared animals was inhumane, declaring that lambs ,&ere c3yots punctured the c3l !;r, the cayot2 wzs 3150 kill2d. 87.. bong tne disadv-inxages <strong>of</strong> the toxic coll ar is the necesii ty <strong>of</strong> sacrificing col 1 ared 1 ivestock in order to cernove pro01 em coyotes. Another di sad)/antage is the labor involved in panning or renioving frarn the arza <strong>of</strong> ant-ici?aiel cgyate attack uncgllared livestock so that ihe attack will most 7ikely be on callared aninals. Alio labor required to instal? che ccl lars, in checking and r2sei:ing :a1 iars which idve s1i;ped out <strong>of</strong> ?roper ?csi:ian, i.e., xhe llarnyx regjon immediazely below the ears can be ex~ens:ive.
