Congrats, what an awesome little trophy!

My first year in the Air Force they were going for $90 to $100 a pelt.  I took 32 trapping and calling.  I bought my first truck because of red and grey fox hides.  Careful when you pull the tail out, they are not super thin skinned but don't man handle it either.  They are EASY to call, probably the easiest animal of all to call in with a cottontail distress call.  They come right in and are VERY jittery.

Beautiful, I would have that mounted for sure.  I saw a silver phase years ago in the Siouxon and I called in a possible last year down in Battleground.  I never got a great look at it but its tail was as long as its body and didnt look like a coyote.

Yep! I agree! I've got the pose all figured out. Gotta see the legs and the tail. I wish these were more common.

Nice work!! I'd really like to get one somday. Missed one a few years ago over in Montana, 350 yards running. My outfitter up in B.C. had a couple cross foxes hanging around his place that I tried to talk him into letting me shoot, no dice. Congrats again.

maybe a bird or a furry animal in the mouth would llok good too? the taxi over by my place on coulee hights has a younger yote mounted with a quail in its mouth. Looks Great.
