LETTER- Coyote ugly: the pictures, that is

I was really disappointed in your article on coyotes ["Invasion of the doggy snatchers? Uptick in area coyote sightings has residents nervous," April 23.]

What purpose was served by showing multiple photographs of dead coyotes, strung from trees, etc.? None of these pictures was necessary to make the points in your article.

As one who appreciates nature and trying to live in harmony with it, I found them disgusting. So now the Hook is a cheap hunting magazine where men can show off their "trophies"? Really poor taste!
