Thanks Mustelidae, I’ll catch you at the winter fur sale.
I imagine you’ll be going to the St Maries sale. I will be. If you aren’t going to St Maries, I could take a form for Teacherman.

When is the St. Maries sale? I’d love to check it out. Most my fur goes to the taxi market but still be fun to take my daughter.

Everyone I talk to says it should be a similar market to last year. In march the average for cats at the ita sale was $390 and the average at the ifh sale was $250. So probably somewhere in that range. I think I saw a few western WA cats go for $75-$100.

According to Rusty Kramer:
"Bobcats have softened some but there is always strong demand for the top 5% of the bobcats caught in the west.  If you get bad bellied bobcats, leave the feet (properly dried) on them.  It will add $15 - $50 to the value for the wall hanger market. "
