Ohio’s DNR has proposed the following for coyote:

“New proposals also include requiring a fur taker permit for coyote hunting and trapping, and adding coyote to the furbearer trapping season. This proposal was made to better align with other furbearer hunting and trapping regulations, and will ensure proper training will be completed prior to trapping coyote by requiring the fulfillment of a trapper education course. Ohio resident landowners are not required to have a hunting license or fur taker permit when hunting or trapping on land they own.”

We all know coyote wreak havoc to other wildlife we enjoy, our pets and farm animals. This proposal will only further allow the population to grow and with a greater population comes greater problems. Let’s show ODNR we want to keep a open season on the coyote and shut down this proposal!
