COYOTES AND COYOTE HUNTING
Several years ago, North Carolina State University conducted research investigating the predator-prey relationship between white-tailed deer and coyotes on Fort Liberty. Click here to read one of the papers they published on the subject.
Although it is legal elsewhere in the state, we do not hunt coyotes year-round on Fort Liberty. Hunters are authorized to harvest coyotes whenever they are properly checked in to hunt, regardless of the game species sought. After deer season closes we will continue publishing an open area sheet each week until the conclusion of the small game season at the end of February. During this time you may check in to hunt coyotes with a rifle. Hunters will not be required to check coyotes at the check station; instead, simply report your harvest during the check out process.
