Coyote Catalog Reactivated in ND

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — North Dakota agriculture and wildlife officials have reactivated an online database to help connect landowners who have coyote problems with hunters and trappers.

Fifty-one landowners and 486 hunters used the Coyote Catalog online database last winter. The state Agriculture Department and state Game and Fish Department have reactivated it through next March.

The database is patterned after a similar deer control program that has been around for a decade.

Officials estimate that coyotes cost North Dakota ranchers more than $1 million last year.
