I could’ve juiced the averages by removing 275 Arizona and Texas coyotes that averaged under $20. Also had 129 cats from Kansas, Arizona and Texas that averaged under $50 that are figured into averages. I want to thank the 13 buyers that bought under shaky market conditions. I worked extremely hard to get a ton of buyers at the sale. My personal coyotes averaged $76 and that included late broken coyotes. A couple good Idaho coyote collections were close to $100 average.

True, but I love trapping for them and catching them.  I get them all tanned.  Going to have a king size comforter made when I get enough.
