SIR, RACCOON IS NOT ON THE MENU...

[Wally]

Idk man. I’ve had 5 coyotes, a couple muskrats, and one 2X beaver pelt up in Canada for a year and still haven’t sold. The last fur auction I went to bad otters and bobcats going for anywhere from 25-70. Depends on size and quality. Really he only fur selling was green raccoon pelts to the Amish. They were buying lot after lot after lot.

Years back a raccoon pelt would fetch $25.

Nowhere close now. You might get that out of a real good coyote pelt with no holes. And I mean a real good coyote pelt.

SOB got like a 60 lbs beaver last week.

That’s a big beaver. Probably a 2X or 3. Depends how far he can stretch it. Lol. Really muskrats are the best bang for the buck out there. Easy to trap, easy to skin and flesh, and easy to hang. Can have one done in 15 minutes.

A lot more than that.

Maybe prime? Been a long time.

Always seemed like a lot of work vs reward to me.

When I was a kid there was an old man
In the ghetto that sold skinned coons out
The back of his pickup On Saturday mornings

I traded a dead frozen red fox I found laying on the side of the road for my first transistor radio back about 1959. A guy drove up while I was looking at it and gave me the radio for it. I got a million dollars worth of use out of that radio.

That was big for a while but I though the demand mostly dried up.
