Rines, a certified wildlife biologist lives and works in the Lakes Region of the state. Rines’ discussion will cover the history and life history of the Eastern Coyote in New Hampshire, with special emphasis on when did coyotes arrive?, how big are they and what do they eat? Her discussion will include how to protect your livestock and garden from then and answer that often repeated question will they eat my children?
