I think there is a market for quills in native art.

Almost all of them can be used. There is a market for the quills and gaurd hair, claws and skulls.

When I lived in Alaska it was a urban Sour dough type of thing that you didn't mess with them because if you were lost and hungry it was one of the few critters you could kill with a stick

I think if you were to try to kill one with a stick, you'd starve to death. It took 2 shots of #3 buck shot to the head to put him down.

Do you target them as your main species and pack number threes around?

The ones I have been around you can walk up and pet. I guess I embellesed with the stick maybe use a stone....Not number threes.

They are very easy to kill with a stick. It seems easier than with a .22 I have killed a lot of them with a stout stick. One blow across the bridge of the nose and they are dead. Any that came around the dogs, cattle or yard were handled that way when I was growing up.

Ten four................I have had some bad run ins with them back in the hound dog days. I think they smell kinda like bear cause had a mess of quills in the hounds alot of times.

What do you use the long hairs for? I bagged one in Dec. and I am going to use the hairs for fly tyeing. What other things do they make out of the hairs?
