Hunter/Landowner Contact Programs

There are three separate programs for connecting licensed hunters with landowners seeking to reduce certain game populations on their land.

HuntLink - This is a pilot program, new in 2025. This program includes coyote, deer, turkey and select other game species. Hunters and landowners may choose to use HuntLink either in addition to or in place of the older Coyote Catalog and Antlerless Deer program.
Coyote Catalog - Coyote only.
Antlerless Deer Program - Closed for the season.

HuntLink App (New in 2025)

This is a pilot program which can be used either in place of or in addition to the Coyote Catalog for 2025.

The HuntLink App lists the contact information of landowners who have signed up for the program.

Landowners will specify the species they would like hunted on their lands.

Species may include: coyote, deer, elk, moose, turkey and/or geese.

Hunters can contact these landowners for permission to hunt the species and lands listed.
