Oregon has officially become the 9th state to ban wildlife killing contests for coyotes and other wildlife as a result of a coalition of 22 local and national wildlife and conservation organizations and hunters, wildlife management professionals, scientists, veterinarians, and advocates across Oregon submitted testimony in support to ban these contests. Oregon now joins Arizona, California, Colorado, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Mexico, Vermont and Washington where these practices are banned in. New York might become the 10th state to also ban wildlife killing contests of coyotes but that is still currently awaiting the governors signature. Wildlife killing contests are when participants compete for cash and prizes to kill the most, the largest and the smallest coyotes and other vital wildlife within a specified time period.

We thank groups such as Project Coyote, the Center for Biological Diversity, Oregon Wild, and Cascadia Wildlands and others for their efforts - John Marchwick
