Well that causes my blood pressure to go up, thanks.

I'm from southern Connecticut, where we've been experiencing a pretty noticeable resurgence in predators in recent years - coyotes, black bears, especially. There was also a lone cougar which made its way from out West a few years ago, almost to the coast. We have a positively booming deer population and low rates of hunting, which I personally believe is responsible for the increase. Can you comment on how you see the future of these trends, especially the interaction between increasing predators and prey, and the interaction between humans and predators?
