A popular Albuquerque shooting store
is cancelling a plan to sponsor a coyote hunt next month.
Calibers said after a
week of nasty Facebook comments, emails and phone calls, it decided the contest
wasn't the right fit for the company's image.
Earlier this week a contest was
announced which would've rewarded the hunter who killed the most coyotes with
two AR-15 semi-automatic firearms. The hunt was to have strict guidelines and
was requested by farmers and ranchers across the state.
But animal lovers quickly pounced on the idea, calling it inhumane and in bad
taste.
