My father was telling me about his boss who used to hunt them for their hides. Sounds barbaric to me but that was in Nevada. That does not seem to fit in with a retirement community in Florida.

Coyotes may be hunted and/or trapped year around in Florida. However, as I believe I have previously pointed out, there is virtually no place in The Villages where it would be legal to discharge a firearm.
The coyote problem can only be addressed by the Morse family, if they choose to do so, by hiring
licensed trappers to work on the problem in the open areas owned by the family.
Only licensed trappers may sell the coyote hides. Apparently there is a market for this.
The coyotes will never all be eliminated. It has been tried in a lot of locations, without success.
Do not let your pets roam free. They can be snatched up in seconds.
