What to do with Raccoons (dead) (now with pix)

We want to harvest our own grapes this year, so I've been attacking the raccoons. Last year "they" got all of them. I do have the small game license.
My question is, what are they good for? Hides, sell to the low rent diners, what else?
The weekend count is 9. Biggest was a 23 lb female.

I would just go through them out in the woods, hides can't be worth too much.

Wine infused coon sounds great. Turn'em into Coyote bait/food. I say keep shooting them.
