Im getting into the fur hunting business of hunting coyote. And Im looking as to who to sell to and the pricing to sell them at. Would you be able to help me with this?
Thank you.
Sincerely yours,
Shawn Starry
How does one get in touch with anyone that will buy coyote hides? What’s the preferable way buyers want them skinned? I just hate to waste the hides.
Hi Jim,
Check with your local state trappers association: https://trappingtoday.com/state-trappers-asssociations/
They should be able to put you in touch with a local fur buyer.
I thought trapping had been outlawed in Colorado, that was why I moved to Idaho. Idaho made trapping, hunting and fishing part of the Idaho Constitution.
