Totally agree....the old timers told me stories of how this used to work in Dade County, MO. Apparently you would call the local sheriff or deputy, tell them you had a coyote, then drop the carcass over a fence. The deputy or sheriff would drive by, verify the kill, and when back at the courthouse, tell the city clerk to process a bounty payment. Some coyotes made the rounds several times.
When I was much younger, say 40-50 yrs ago, it was not uncommon to see a coyote ( or 2 or 3) hanging on a barbed wire fence near the gate. Haven't seen that again in a really long time.
Maybe Oklahoma had the same bounty at the time?
