"Compound 1080 and M-44 sodium cyanide capsules are lethal, dangerous, and unnecessary poisons. They pose a very serious threat to our nation's citizens, wildlife, and domesticated animals. I am pleased that the EPA finally is taking a step in the right direction through formally investigating Mr. Slaugh's case," DeFazio said.

There's plenty more info online to inform hikers, jeepers and other outdoorsmen. The only case I could find of someone getting hurt was some guy who sued for 10k 'cause his dog died, but in the new issue of Off-Road & Sport Utility, the editor wrote a column because an ATV'er accidentally set off one of these things (although thank god it wasn't fatal).

But seriously, what the **** is wrong with these guys, we can't even bring ****ing water onto planes but in the meantime the federal government is making chemical weapons in the form of roadside bombs and happily planting them across the countryside like some kind of extremist Johnny Appleseed?

that seems absolutely terrible.

Even though I don't know that much about cyanide, surely in 2008 there are safer means of eliminating coyotes.

A Winchester Rifle being the preffered method.

I have a feeling that if we let the roadrunners deal with all the coyotes it would be worse than cyanide land mines...

Just vote for Obama. Much quicker, and it doesn't screw up my country anymore than Bush could.
