Coyotes have been prized for their fur. Which was used to make coats and was widely used in the Fur Trade. Today the fur is still used to make coats for men.

The following was taken directly from Wikipedia, I do not claim to have any part in writing the following, I simply used this as a reference that can give you more details on Coyote's being hunted. You can also check out the Wikipedia information by going to the link listed below.

In the early days of European settlement in North Dakota, American Beavers were the most valued and sought after furbearers, though other species were also taken, including coyotes.[41] Coyotes are an important furbearer in the region. During the 1983-86 seasons, North Dakota buyers purchased an average of 7,913 pelts annually, for an average annual combined return to takers of $255,458. In 1986-87, South Dakota buyers purchased 8,149 pelts for a total of $349,674 to takers.[42] The harvest of coyote pelts in Texas has varied over the past few decades, but has generally followed a downward trend. A study from the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, however, found that there was no indication of population decline, and suggested that, as pelt prices were not increasing, the decrease in harvest was likely due to decreasing demand, and not increasing scarcity (where pelt prices would go up.) It suggested that fashion, and the changing custom of wearing fur garments, may be significant among these factors.[43] Today, coyote fur is still used for full coats and trim and is particularly popular for men's coats.[44]

Yes, there are coyotes in Northern Wisconsin. Coyotes are adaptable animals, but they do prefer woodland areas. Northern Wisconsin is quite wooded. Deer populations are high. Coyotes eat carrion (dead) deer as well as hunted deer, and the Northwoods in Wisconsin has large deer herds. Hence, Northern Wisconsin is quite a fine habitat for Coyotes.
