A Farm Bureau Asks Preditor Control From Gam, Hatch The Utah Farm Bureau has urged Utah Senators Jake Garn and Ornn Hatch to consider a Senate bill that would give the secretary of interior specific instructions on permissable predator control measures. In a message to each senator over Farm Bureaus nationwide teletype network, C. Booth Wallentine, UFBF executive vice president, explained that recent actions by the Department of Interior have virtually made it impossible to use lethal control methods. We must have help to reduce livestock losses to predators. Senate Bill 2195 identifies both lethal and predator control non-leth- al devices, methods and chemical toxicants to be used. It would also create a committee consisting of af- fected. interests to review the activities of the act and recommend action needed to make control measures effective Wallentine asked the lawmakers to review the bill and, if they feel they of it. can, to join as Cecil Andrus, U.S. secretary of the interior, recently proclaimed an end to ail research involving the chemical toxicant 1080, perhaps the most effective coyote control tool used in past years (prior to a presidential ban on its use in the early 1970s), and an end to the practice of denning-killi- ng coyote pups m the den. He also narrowed aerial gunning to killing only an offending animal, a requirement livestockmen say will severly limit their ability to keep the coyote population within reasonable bounds. Industry spokesmen point out that the nations sheep numbers are 40 percent below 10 years ago, mainly because predator losses have forced rancers out of business. Wildlife numbers are also reduced by coyotes and other predators.
