The Nevada Legislative Commission approved a coyote hunting contest season earlier this week. This 7-to-5 vote ends a decade-plus-long battle of kicking the can down the road.
Last month, the Nevada Department of Wildlife Commission approved a regulation for the state’s wildlife officials to establish a policy and set regulations for a coyote hunting contest season. This approval was sent to the Legislative Commission, a 12-member panel of state Senators and Assemblymembers that approves regulations when the full legislature is not in session.
Season Dates and Licensing Requirements
The season runs from September 1 to March 31, and participants must hold a trapping or hunting license.
The Sportsmen’s Alliance thanks the Wildlife Commission and Legislative Commission for supporting its sportsmen and women.
The legacy of hunting, fishing, and trapping depends on our actions today. Please stand with us or donate to the Sportsmen’s Legal Defense Fund in the fight against those who are working to bully and erode our heritage and traditions.
