that trespassing was forbidden on Tejon Ranch Lands.
Mrs. Janzen also told me of being at a service station in
Arvin last week and hearing a person who said he was
trapping and poisoning coyotes in the mountains of the
Tejon Ranch, go to great ends to describe how much a threat
to human welfare coyotes were, and how they kill sheep
in great numbers and calves and deer as well as being
a menace to human health by carrying hydrophobia. Mrs.
Janzen told him she doubted coyotes killed sheep that were
properly cared for and that she thought sheep did as much
harm in overgrazing range as coyotes did in killing.
I drove from Arvin to Tejon Flats and put my bed-roll
down for the night. The sky was clear, but a brisk SW wind was
blowing.
