Hundreds of animals were recently massacred in a Virginia Wildlife Killing Contest for Games and Prizes. An estimated 590+ coyotes and “dozens of foxes” were killed during the contest, and most will be dumped like garbage after the event since their fur is usually too damaged to use. Categories for the contest included “killing the most, the smallest and the heaviest coyote, the heaviest and smallest fox, and the most combined of the two.”
Wildlife killing contests have been banned in some states, but in others, like Ohio, they’re alive and well.
