I have confirmed a coyote in my yard (back up to woods) that I think may even have pups. It has come through the yard on two occasions now and I have heard it 'yipping' at night. Anyone have any reputable licensed trappers they know of? Better yet do cooperative extensions or animal services do this kind of thing?
I'd contact Trutech. They specialize in wildlife removal that typical "exterminators" don't. They helped us a couple summers ago with a yellow jacket next in the ground and the tech told us at that time about all the different types of wildlife they handle. Their website mentions coyotes. http://www.trutechinc.com/north-carolina-animal-control-removal.html
Thanks. They want $700 - $1200, but it has to be causing property damage or acting aggressively first. So....I suppose I am now looking for qualified folks who will do it for the sport of it.
I tried the shelter, no luck. If it comes to it I will shoot the coyote, but I would prefer a professional trap it first.
Anyone recognize any of these names? These are the NC Wildlife Resources list of JoCo trappers.

I was just looking @ the same site to pass to you There's also another one above it (thru NC Wildlife) regarding classes on how to or something along that line. Maybe can contact the instructor and tell him you know where the students can get "hands on experience" www.ncwildlife.org/trapping/Trap_Education.htm
