congratulated the President for his
courage in repealing Executive
Order 11643.
“With this single action,” said
Don Meike, chairman of the
NWGA Board of Directors, “the
President has sent a clear message
that he means business about
controlling the 200 million dollar
annual loss in livestock predation
and the population explosion of
coyotes that is now even
threatening and taking human
life.”
In a telegram to the President,
Meike said, “Government can hurt

Executive Order 11643 was
issued in 1972 by President Nixon.
It banned the use of compound
1080, a toxicant used in predator
control, on the nations public
lands.
Meike cautioned that the action
taken by President Reagan will not
immediately permit the use of
compound 1080. “The En
vironmental Protection Agency
must first re-register the use of
compound 1080,” Meike said. “As
soon as they do, there will be no
road blocks left. The President saw
to that today.”
