Editor’s note: The following letter is in response to a letter to the editor reacting to Thornton Kennedy’s Jan. 11 column titled “How I stopped worrying and learned to love coyotes.”

EDITOR:

I absolutely loved Lewis “Reggie” Regenstein’s defense of coyotes in Buckhead (Letters to the Editor, Jan. 18) and their pecking order in the natural food chain, which saves millions of birds by controlling the cat population.

For some reason it reminded me of that classic bumper sticker in the ’80s which read: “More People Have Died in Ted Kennedy’s Car Than in Any Nuclear Power Plant in the U.S.”

Great work, Reggie!
