Managing predators can work , Example, around 4 years ago I noticed several birds in my flock of chickens disapear , some feathers , until I caught the culprit with a load of #4 buck from my 20 gauge, the animal , a coyote, a very smart and numerous predator. afew months later another and 2 more and one more last year. There are still coyotes out there to I have seen and saw them , even as close to spittin distance from my fence and birds , but I havn't had a single kill from a coyote for 3 years (the last one we called in) I belive they have smartend up to the point they think of my birds as the things that mean-joe-green- and his thunderstick own so stay the hell away!, I have seen them stand 300 yds away and when I open the screen door they scatter like hell to the nearest patch of brush. so I do belive this predator control can work, yes on land but in the sea with lions' could be a way diffrent story.
