SCDNR tags and releases 16 coyotes a year statewide to encourage people to hunt and trap them . If you get one it's worth$3000. I This is my third season trapping so I still get pretty excited when I get a coyote. I was dancing around like a 64 year old kid when I spotted the ear tags. Only second day on the line and my season is made.

That’s awesome you caught one!
Is there proof that they actually release 16 tagged coyotes and not 1 or 2?

Never would have thought a coyote was worth $3000 Might be a drove of trappers headed to SC Don't need to encourage trapping them here so not going to be any thing like that for us Why the encouragement to trap them? Predation? Disease (mange/rabies)?

Predation? Disease (mange/rabies)? Predation from what I understand. Apparently they were having a big impact on our deer population

Another first for me on the trap line yesterday morning. He actually landed in the club house yard and let me pick him up. Made my morning for sure. Nice

Talked to the head of the furbearer project that released the tagged coyote. He was released 25.6 miles away from where I caught him in December of 2023. He was the 71st one caught out of 142 released over the last 8 years. That's definitely interesting!
