I've only killed one, so I took it to get a shoulder mount.
If I'm ever lucky enough to get another one I'll just tan the hide. |

I toss most of mine under a bush. I have a few hanging up in the office, and I've sold a few, but most of the coyotes around here aren't worth skinning.
Kill coyote, take pic, toss under bush, wash hands, repeat. |

Shoot, take pictures, see if it knows how to fly. This fox ended up in the ditch as "road kill."

Frogwater, my boys (8 and 4) say your Elvis Yoda has the wrong color lightsaber.
And I gotta ask, catapault? |

Oh, and no catapult was used: my buddy actually got that yote swinging back and forth pretty good before he let it fly. Somewhere I have video of it too.

In college I was getting $30 a yote, that was carcass, no skinning needed. Good beer money. Now, prices are shit so I just leave them for the birds.

The state is paying $50 for a pair of ears in Utah right now. Passed 2 on my way into work this morning so I called my Bro-inlaw to go get them. They were haning around the small calves that the ranchers put out earlier this week.

Yeah it's a little funny, fur prices in the 70's and 80's were about the same they are now, but that was when gas was less than $.50 a gallon. Now we're around $4.00 a gallon with the same fur prices  . I still go trapping and skin my Yotes though. |

Until this past weekend, all I've shot has been mangy, or too shot up (.300 WSM) to keep. However, I got one this last Friday with a 7.62X39 and am having a pedestal mount done.
Any from now on with a decent hide are going to the tanner. I can't see me stacking them up too high. |

I think I would have kept that pelt. Well it's been thirty years since I walked the trapline with my Dad. I thought greys were all grey though. Yes? no? |

If they're not mangy and not shot up to bad, I sell them. I don't skin them, I just bring them to him whole. I got an average of about $16.00 each for them last year.

Lungbuster - how much to you get per pelt? Just curious. Those look like pretty big dogs.
