When you shoot and kill a coyote what do to guys do with yours ?
Do you skin them? Leave them ? Etc.. |

Quoted:
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. What he said! Hey, the buzzards gotta eat too. |

I bow to you.

Quoted: Frogwater, my boys (8 and 4) say your Elvis Yoda has the wrong color lightsaber. And I gotta ask, catapault? Yeah yeah yeah... I've heard that before. Your boy's are correct; Yoda's light saber was indeed green, but YOVIS has a blue one (to match his suede shoes).  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. |

Quoted:
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. 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. |

Shoot, take pictures, see if it knows how to fly. This fox ended up in the ditch as "road kill." http://i221.photobucket.com/albums/dd136/jblomenberg16/Fox_1.jpg Dude, that's a cross fox , I believe. 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? |

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.  I have question for U Shenanagins. I have been invited to go hunting for yots there in July. Im a non resident. will I need any liscense to hunt them? And can I use my Ar15 . Any restrictions on magazines? TY for ur help. Tuna. |

My Grandpa has quite a bit of land and has livestock. If he sees a coyote near the treeline and drops it, he leaves it there. If he shoots it in the field, he picks it up and throws it to the tree line.

Lungbuster - how much to you get per pelt? Just curious. Those look like pretty big dogs. I got a $50 average last year, I sold 49 coyotes. The market looks good again for this winter too. Wow - that's a huge difference between those thick furred northern dogs and our nasty southern dogs. On a good day I'd get $25, and that's for the best of the best, which is not even 1/4 of the coyote pelts that you get down here. |

Pretty much all the yotes I have killed have just been left for whatever wants to eat em.

Or you could send them off to one of the big warehouses where they will be auctioned. Rizzo, $25 dollars isn't bad, I've skinned them for $8.00. |

Local organizations? hmmm i think there is a AZ Predators club that meets every other thursday. Is it the same for fox, bobcat and others? |

Bobcat brought $400-$600 last year depending on the grade and how wide the belly fur is. I'm not sure how much they brought down there where you are from, probably at least $100+. I'm guessing... |
