Wrong.
Coyotes may be trapped during the established trapping season in your area or at any time that a local law fox season is in effect. This change was made about three years ago so that trappers setting for fox in a county that had a local fox season that opened before the regular trapping season did not have to release the coyotes.

Coyote falls under "Furbearer" and our fox does not.

Actually, a coyote is not considered a furbearer in NC, its "vermin."

Sooo, does that mean that they can b trapped any time of the year in ADC format as long as you have permission from the land owner and don't try to sell the pelts come fall time?
This situation is currently developing. They want them trapped, but don't want to wait til Nov....

You can only trap beaver without a ADC permit, I think. Surely someone here can give better advice om this matter.

THE RULE IS THE ANIMAL HAS TO CAUSE AT LEAST $50 WORTH OF DAMAGE TO THE PROPERTY. THEN A GAMEWARDEN OR WILDLIFE DAMAGE CONTROL AGENT CAN ISSUE A DEPREDATION PERMIT FOR THE ANIMAL IN CONCERN TO THE LANDOWNER/LEASEE. THEN THE LANDOWNER CAN GET WHOM EVER TO TRAP/SHOOT THE ANIMAL AS LONG AS THEY ARE LISTED ON THE PERMIT AND ARE A LICENSED TRAPPER. A COYOTE MAY BE SOLD LIVE MARKET THIS TIME OF YEAR, UNTIL YOUR TRAPPING SEASON IS IN, THEN IT MAY BE SOLD FOR FUR.
NO PERMIT REQUIRED FOR BEAVER, WE JUST HAVE TO KEEP RECORDS OF BEAVER WORK WE DO AS AGENTS.

$50 dollars, huh? Hmmm. I don't think that they have done any damage yet, they are just running the cows around a little and scaring them for now. I am going to try to put it off for another 2 weeks and see what happens. I will start baiting them next week. Hopefully I can snag a few and some of their trouble beavers too...

Why bait? If they are there and active, they are not going to leave. You want him to be curious about your sets and willing to investigate. Sometimes, new activity causes them to become reluctant to work an area. Set, leave it alone and they will come.
