Do you need a furtaker licence in pa to take a coyote? Just curious.

RE: Any yotes in Pa.
 

no, coyotes can be hunted on your regular hunting license.

We got one off a deer drive yesterday afternoon in Lancaster county, western central area of the county. Second one got away.

1 in dauphin county that i know of

Ya might want to double check that. In rifle season you need a valid deer tag to hunt them with only a hunting license and you might need a furtakers license to hunt them...but I could be mistaken too...something to double check...

Anyway, saw plenty of yotes during archery season. Even called on in from over 200 yards for my buddy but he was uncomfortable with the 50 yard shot...the landowner where I hunt archery killed his first opening day of rifle. I've shot 2 off this farm, one with bow, one with rifle and a third elsewhere in spring gobbler season...

In PA Coyotes can be hunted on a regular license OR trapped with a furtakers. Now fox you need both hunting license AND furtakers to hunt one.

The Coyote numbers are down a little this year in PA......the PGC stocking truck from Montana broke down on I-80 and they just released them all into Ohio.;)

I did see a big one Saturday in Huntingdon Co. but he was haulin' A and even though he came by at 30 yards it would have been liketrying to hit a flying grouse with a .22. I didn't even try.:D

Yotes can be hunted on a regular hunting license ONLY while legally hunting deer and with an unfilled deer tag. You can't just go out any time of year and whack yotes - at least that's how I understood the law.

Gil850- that's only if you are hunting Yotes during the rifle deer season. Also during turkey season you can only hunt yotes if you have a valid turkey tag. The reason they do that is so you don't go around poaching deer or turkey and say "I'm hunting coyotes". Coyotes in PA have no closed season so you can hunt them all year round with a regular hunting license.

Actually the truck comes in from Colorado!:D

I saw one on opening day hauling the mail across the hollow.

Yea, that makes sense - Thanks.

no yotes this year but i did see what im gonna say was a wolf. we were spotlighting on sun. nite before season in a field not far from where we hunt and there stood this animal ,big, black german shepherd looking animal.after watching him for a few long minutes this thing started to trot off well when he took off his trot was more like a lope so we knew something was different about this "dog" but we continued on with our spotting,,about an hour later we came back thru the area and sure enough,,,he was still there,,same field,,stalking 3 does,,we watched him for about another 5 mins. and continued on our way wonderin if what we saw was truly a wolf,,my brother lives in the area and i told him about it and he said he had to go thru there on his way to the store and he said he would check it out to see if it might be the amish' dog,,,due to the fact that they have 1 big shepherd,,,,he spun thru there and the dog was tied up and the animal that we seen was still there,,,chasin a doe,,,only camera i had was a kodak disposable so i have no pics to verify this story,,,but i wish i would've took the gun back out there and shot whatever it was we saw,,i know in my heart that it was a wolf and not a kids family pet,,if i had to take a guess,,,im bettin this thingwould weigh 60-80lbs,,this was in the southern clinton co. area

been going coyote hunting and seen about 7

RE: Any yotes in Pa.
 

The game comission said there's no closed season except for some other kind of game seasons you can't. I asked and they told all about it. In that case I have been going coyote hunting.

RE: Any yotes in Pa.
 

didnt see any this year, but a lot of tracks. even saw track of two to be what looks like, chasing a deer.

RE: Any yotes in Pa.
 

I killed one last summer - just a small one. I was hunting groundhogs, and he came out into the field about 150-200 yds away.

I don't know what happened. He just fell right over. I guess he had a "splitting headache."

The gamelands in northern Wayne County have all you want.
