Just wondering... I thought that coyotes had an open season 365 days a year in the past. I check the last 4 or 5 years and it seems that it has always been October 15, 2016 – March 15, 2017
Was it ever 365 days per year?
I checked Illinois and it is Year round (Statewide) minus a few deer hunting days.
Coyote and Striped Skunk Closed Nov. 18 - 20 and through 6 p.m. Nov. 20 and closed Dec. 1 - 4 to 1/2 hr. after sunset;
and through 6 p.m. Dec. 4 in counties open for firearm deer huntinge
Deer Hunting since 1999 (Virginia, Indiana, Illinois, Minnesota, Montana Antelope) Marketing Guy in Chicago but grew up in Indiana/ Ball State.. blah blah blah.

365 in Indiana on PRIVATE land, only with Landowner's written permission!
But I believe you can not possess or keep the animal/hide outside of the Indiana "season"!

Because the bow hunters don't want to share the woods with trappers, coyote hunters any sooner than they have to,
And.. To give pelts a chance to be closer to prime. Canines prime earlier than say beaver, which don't hit prime until about Christmas
Off season hides are worthless for keeping anyway
