Hunter/Landowner Contact Form

There are two programs for connecting licensed hunters with landowners seeking to reduce coyote or deer populations on their land, the Coyote Catalog and the Antlerless Deer Program.

Coyote Catalog

Description: The Coyote Catalog is a cooperative effort between the Game and Fish Department and the ND Department of Agriculture. It is designed to connect committed hunters and trappers with landowners who would like to see reduced coyote numbers in their area.

Signup Period: Open early December through March 31.

Landowner Signup: Interested landowners can sign up at the Department of Agriculture website from December to March.

Hunter Signup: Interested hunters and trappers should complete the form below during the program's signup period.

Requirements: Hunters must have a valid furbearer license.

Antlerless Deer Program

Description: The Antlerless Deer program connects hunters with landowners who would like to host hunters with antlerless deer licenses during the regular deer gun hunting season.

Signup Period: Open mid-August for youth hunters and early September for all other hunters.

Landowner Signup: Interested landowners should contact the Department by phone at 701-328-6351.

Hunter Signup: Interested hunters and trappers should complete the form below during the program's signup period.
