Question: I live in Imperial County and would like to go coyote and skunk hunting but need to know the biggest caliber of gun that can be used. I do see that for raccoon you may not use a caliber larger that a .22 rimfire. What can I use for coyote and skunk?
Answer: There is no maximum rifle caliber specified in Fish and Game regulations for taking coyotes and skunks (non-game mammals). Fish and Game regulations authorize non-game mammals to be taken in any manner (see Section 475 in the Mammal Hunting regulation booklet). This authorization includes firearms with no further description or restriction, except when hunting within the California condor range where lead ammunition is prohibited (California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Section 475(f)).
