Very interesting article and idea:
In order to determine whether more fawns could be produced by keeping coyotes away, a large fence was erected at a research facility in Georgia. This 10-year study involved the construction of a fence around a 98-acre area that provided good fawning habitat for whitetails. The fence was four feet tall and buried deep within the ground, preventing coyotes from going over or under it. GPS collars on subject deer showed that does quickly learned to go into this coyote exclusion area to avoid predation and have their fawns.
This study showed two predictable results over 10 years. First, the number of fawns that made it to reproductive age significantly increased. Second, hunting success also increased in and near the exclusion area.

“Coyotes are omnivores, which means they will eat almost anything. One research project in Texas showed that predators, primarily coyotes were responsible for 60 percent of all fawn deaths in one year.”
Without question, deer losses such as this represent a significant financial setback and huge damage in a wildlife management program.
There are several ways to control these predators.
The use of predator wire can help greatly in this matter. Quality ranch fence materials will come in a 26-inch-wide net wire that can be laid on the ground and attached to the bottom of the 8-foot fence with hog-proof fence rings.
Turf staples can be used to secure the wire to the ground if the soil is not rocky. This is 99% effective to keep coyotes from digging under the fence. It also keeps the coyotes inside the high fence from getting out. Usually an intense coyote hunting needs to take place by someone that is qualified after the wire is installed.
