Predator management

Managing predators like coyotes and raptors in critical infrastructure requires a fundamentally different approach than reactive removal. Humane Solutions builds monitoring and response programs rooted in data — understanding population behavior first, then intervening precisely when and where needed.

What we do

How we can help

01

Population monitoring & data collection

Trail cameras, GPS collar data analysis, den surveys, and sign transects build a clear picture of local predator populations, territories, and movement patterns. Data precedes every intervention decision.

02

Airport predator programs

Coyotes are masters of fence navigation and can follow vehicles through gates. Our airport programs focus on perimeter vulnerability assessment, real-time monitoring, and rapid response protocols — reducing strike risk without continuous reactive removal.

03

Urban coyote management

Human-wildlife conflict mitigation for municipalities: hotspot identification, public communication programs, and targeted hazing or removal of conflict individuals only when data supports it.

04

Targeted removal & hazing

When an individual animal is confirmed as a repeat conflict risk, our predator team dispatches quickly and humanely. Intervention is always data-justified and documented.

05

Training & knowledge transfer

We train municipal staff, airport operations teams, and conservation officers in our monitoring and response methodology — building long-term in-house capacity.

In the field

Live capture & release

When lethal control isn't the answer, we trap, assess, tag, and release. Every capture is documented — species, condition, location, and outcome. This is what a data-driven predator program looks like on the ground.

Live-caught coyote release — part of a data-driven population monitoring program.

Common questions

Frequently asked

Standard deterrents fail coyotes because they adapt quickly. Our programs focus on understanding the local population — who they are, how they move, and where fences are compromised — then addressing root causes. Reactive removal alone is expensive and never-ending.
