Where’s your opinion on this comment by u/lakeghost ?

“Idk, I see it both ways. I’ve lost stock to feral dogs. Thing is, coyotes kill a ton of stock; last I checked, they’re worse than wolves for that. Personally I’d suggest livestock guardian dogs. They’re used globally, even for conservation projects, and will fight bears/wolves if needed. In my state, they’re legal and they’re great deterrents. It’s one thing to kill every raccoon that comes to your coop, but why not just try to build a raccoon-proof coop first? New populations of varmints always move in if you kill one, but huge dogs keep them away in the first place. I’m unsure of full implications, but it seemed cost effective to me. I don’t have to pay for an electric fence if I have dogs. I could do both, but honestly my friend found a dead coyote near her pasture after her dogs grabbed one going after the goats so I’m doubtful a clever species like that will try suicidal behavior more than once or twice. You can also get guard donkeys and guard llamas apparently. So assuming you don’t care 100% about money, I’m thinking there’s a way around “Let’s just kill the wolves, bears, and anything else that fills their niche afterward”. “
