8th Annual GON Coyote Cull
Twice as many prizes and third month added for 2021!
GON Staff | April 29, 2021
Need a little added incentive to do some coyote control? GON’s 8th annual Coyote Cull features a prize pool that doubled to six chances to win, and we added a third month to enter. The total value of this year’s Coyote Cull prizes is more than $3,520!
We do the Coyote Cull now because this is when fawns and turkey poults are young and extremely vulnerable to coyotes. Biologists say taking out a coyote right now can have a greater positive impact than at other times of the year.
We allow one entry per month per household so prizes aren’t all won by commercial trappers or predator-control experts, who are killing plenty of coyotes anyway and getting paid to do it. This is for the average GON folks who want to take part in an effort to do something positive about a non-native, invasive species. See entry instructions and details on how to enter at the end of this article.
After the July 16 entry deadline, a random drawing will determine who wins these prizes:

How To Enter GON’s Coyote Cull
The Coyote Cull is designed to be uncomplicated. It’s not a contest to kill the most coyotes or the biggest. There are no check stations. The prizes are simply a great incentive to get folks out right now doing what we should all be doing anyway—taking out some coyotes during the time of year when fawns and turkey poults are being born.
To enter, hunt or trap a coyote. Then email a picture to [email protected] showing the dead coyote and the hunter holding this May 2021 issue of GON, the upcoming June 2021 issue, or the July 2021 issue. The email must include hunter’s name, hometown and county where the coyote was taken. There is no entry fee, and you don’t even have to buy the current issue—you can borrow one from a friend. We require that the hunter hold the current issues is so we know the coyote was killed during this three-month period of the Coyote Cull.
One picture-entry per coyote—your buddy can’t take a picture with your coyote and enter. We will accept entries through July 16. The only rule is a limit of one entry per month, per household. If you enter this month holding the May GON, you (or someone from your household) can enter again the next two months holding the June or July issues. Maximum of three entries per household.
Your entry photo and details can also be mailed to GON Coyote Cull, 4331 Seven Islands Road, Madison, GA 30650. We must receive them by July 16. Call (800) 438-4663 with questions.
