Surprisingly enough, we don't. And I think that's for a couple of reasons. One is, they are not indigenous to this state.

They are wiping out the native fox population.

They eat literally millions of ducks and thousands of turkeys yearly.

They interbreed with the endangered native Red Wolf, which we have been trying to restore here in NC for many years.

And lastly, they eat people's pets and children. There have been lots and lots of pets killed. Luckily we have not had any children killed here - yet - but there have been tots killed up in New England, so I figure it's just a matter of time.

btw, here's the full story of our ranch trip:
