Yep thats kinda how I look at it..
Honestly I think the ever increasing turkey population is potentially a lot more harmful than coyotes, where I live (Rockingham county nh) I haven't seen any change in coyotes in the last 25 years - had them back then, have them now, hear them commonly, rarely if ever do you see them...
Turkeys on the other hand barely existed prior and now are everywhere you look - a hazard on the roads, probably changing all sorts of things in the larger environment. They hangout on our yards and probably spread diseased terd and lice and who knows what else (you hunters gotta step it up with these freakin things).. dont even run when you yell at them anymore.
To me anyway, Turkeys seem like pests - I dont hunt but seems like they ought to be thinned out and Id be ok doing it. I kinda like coyotes, would take to shooting one no different than a dog - if there was a damn good concrete reason (ie protecting myself or my animals from imminent threat) I would otherwise I couldn't do it.
