A professional trapper, Dan Eaton, is involved in trapping since he was 10 years old. Eaton has experience of more than 40 years. These days he is hunting for coyotes. Eaton is doing this to help biologists at University of Georgia, who are conducting a study to understand how these animals live in Georgia, South Carolina and Alabama.

The biologists also want to find out that how coyotes are thriving in the South and how they are different from those in the West and North. Eaton set a trap line on private hunting land outside Augusta, Georgia. He wanted to catch at least one coyote.

"Everybody wants you to trap coyotes for free until you tell them you're collaring them and letting them go", he said. Eaton caught a female after trying many times. This coyote is among nearly 160, which researchers want for the study.

Michael Chamberlain, who is also leading the study, said that they want this study to expand to a higher level.
