On November 6, K-State Extension, along with the Great Bend Rec Center will be hosting a program by Wildlife Specialist Drew Ricketts starting at 7:00 p.m. The meeting will be held at Cheyenne Bottoms Wetlands Center located at 592 NE K 156 Hwy, Great Bend.  

During his program, Ricketts will discuss coyote biology, helping people to better understand their movements, vocalizations, and diet among other topics. He will also discuss tips and methods on trapping and calling coyotes including the proper use of mouth and electronic calls.  

If you enjoy the outdoors, or more specifically enjoy hunting coyotes, don’t miss out on this event. This program is generously sponsored by Sutherlands, P&S Security, and Cheyenne Bottoms Wetlands Center.
