What’s in it

AI summary Counties in Iowa can now start programs that pay people for catching coyotes. If a county chooses to do this, they must pay $10 for every coyote taken legally within their borders.1

Read the official explanation

This bill authorizes counties to establish coyote bounty programs. Current law prohibits a county board of supervisors from paying a bounty on crows, rattlesnakes, foxes, or wolves, but a board of supervisors may pay a bounty on coyotes. The bill requires a county that establishes a coyote bounty program to offer a $10 bounty for a coyote lawfully taken within the county.
