Obviously they needed to dilute it by a factor of 13000...its almost homeopathy.
Homeopathy would take something bitter, then dilute it down. They'd then claim that the more dilute you make it, the sweeter it gets. Uh Huh. And if you buy that I've got a bridge to sell you.

some coyotes simply CANNOT be poisoned... they must be baited with meat with a autofiring projectile syringe in it.
That sounds more like something a coyote would use to catch a roadrunner. Except he would have to use birdseed to bait it.
