Can you shoot a coyote on your property in Missouri?

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. — At a hearing held on September 4 in Jefferson City by the Conservation Commission, the Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) presented amended rules to the Wildlife Code of Missouri concerning the shooting of coyotes and the management of feral hog populations.

The modification is a response to requests made by citizens to the Regulations Committee to use night vision, infrared, or thermal imagery equipment or artificial light to hunt coyotes, as well as requests made by landowners to allow their authorized representatives to use night vision, infrared, or thermal imagery equipment without prior approval from a conservation agent to address damage caused by feral hogs.

The Regulations Committee has decided to make the modification in response to these requests. A landowner who owns property of any size and their authorized representatives are now permitted, under the revised regulations, to possess, control, and use night vision, infrared, and thermal imagery equipment to kill feral hogs on the landowner’s property while in possession of any implement where wildlife could be killed or taken.

This includes the ability to use night vision equipment while carrying any implement that could kill or take wildlife. Without obtaining previous authorization from a conservation agent, landowners and their representatives would be permitted to kill or seize feral pigs at any time of the year using the techniques described above.

In addition, the regulations allow licensed hunters to use artificial lighting, night vision, infrared, or thermal imaging equipment between February 1 and March 31 in conjunction with other legal hunting methods in order to pursue and take coyotes. This provision is in effect for the duration of the hunting season.

On November 30th, the regulations will become enforceable. MDC notes that property owners and their representatives still have the ability to use night vision, infrared, or thermal imaging equipment, as well as artificial light, to kill coyotes or other wildlife that is causing damage to their property at any time of the year so long as they have written authorization from a conservation agent.
