Abstract: Livestock husbandry practices and other management techniques can help prevent or reduce predation by coyotes, dogs, foxes, bears, bobcats, and mountain lions. Sheep and goats are considered most vulnerable to predators, although poultry, cattle, hogs, horses, and exotic game animals are often subject to predation in many areas of North America. This pamphlet deals primarily with protecting sheep and goats, but the information in it can be applied to other livestock as well.
