Title: Who buys coyote pelts?
Post by: Guy on November 10, 2008, 04:14:11 PM: Who buys coyote pelts? I seem to have a good supply of coyotes on land I hunt - but usually just leave 'em after I shoot them because I don't know how to get rid of any pelts I get. Seems I heard a rumor of some woman up near Pateros who buys 'em whole - story was she'd rather skin them herself than have someone else muck 'em up. Darned if I know...

Looking for someone in central WA, within an easy drive of Wenatchee...

Thanks, Guy

Sorry right now I can't remember his last name. If I forget PM me. He will accept tubed coyotes with the skull and tailbone still in. Don't know about whole coyotes.

Don't plan on making much, from what I've heard the prices are way down this year.

The fur market is anybodys guess at this point. Our economic problems have been felt worldwide but the #1 factor in the fur market is the severity of winter over seas. If it is cold, they buy fur, if not, you might as well let the coyotes eat Gregoires dogs.
