NEW SWEDEN, Maine — Deer hunters are seeing a drop in the coyote population in the wilderness areas of Aroostook County.

The drop is due in part to the Aroostook County Conservation Association’s coyote control management program, which is in its 14th year. During its first season in 2008-09, hunters were seeing at least two or three coyotes on the white tail deer tracks, but that number has declined in recent years.
