Same predators here too. I've lost one cat, a goose and some ducks to coyotes but I suspect all were outside the chainlink fence when they were taken.

Could be, but fences don't stop coyotes. I saw a huge ridiculously healthy male specimen in my backyard in broad daylight and he didn't seem to much care that I saw him.
I keep weapons around, so I grabbed a buck knife and yelled while throwing it at him. Of course I missed and he left. I felt bad about my weak attempt to harm him,
but on the other hand he would not have felt bad about eating my cats.

Most coyote are scrawny, not this one. It looked like a schutzhund guard dog German Shep in size.

Agreed on the fence, but I have both security cams and automatic security lights and have never seen them jump the fence although I've seen them about 20 yards from the house. During rutting season in the fall they make quite a racket and come close. When I hear them I'll toss a firecracker, sometimes shoot a pistol into the ground, and that's the last I see of them that night.

They're vermin, so don't feel bad about killing them. The problem is it's much more difficult to get rid of them. They're territorial and killing one just allows another to move in.

Well when lockdowns are still in place in several months then what will your response be?

I would expect if that happens, we will see a surge of foreclosures. Or at least attempts to foreclose... public shaming of lenders might help. In addition, it might be difficult for lenders to get court dates.

That would look doubly bad for those up for reelection. I'm certain measures will be taken. Again, banks want money, not houses. Since the economy is down, the value of those houses will go down too. Even further since they'll be sitting empty. Banks will push the government to grant the extensions with the proviso that all past-due payments must be caught up by a certain date.

You don't think Trump is going to get his way about Easter?

As for lockdowns, it isn't martial law. What is the penalty where you live if a person is walking their dog in a park?

In Texas, there is no penalty.....but we also have open carry soooooo.......

North Carolina is down till May, Alabama until the 20 something, as far as I can see l, there is no expected dates for NJ, NY, or CA. Let me know how well those dog walks buy you food or keep your electric on.

So martial law there? People can't work, shop or exercise? Maybe you should move to a Free State like Texas.

I'm prepared for the apocalypse both spiritually and with canned goods, ammo and toilet paper. Thanks for caring. I take it you weren't prepared at all. Sad.

BTW, if you run out of TP, here's a tip:

I hear it's getting bad in Detroit, so you must be dealing with it worse than many here. It seems the cities with a lot of business dealing between there and Asian countries are affected the most.
