Post by: TeacherMan on March 18, 2012, 08:20:33 PM: I hope you skinned him with feet and lower jaw. That yote could be worth some $$$ if skinned correctly.

Once he is dried send him to Moyle in Idaho. They do a good job.

Post by: sirfunkeybut on March 18, 2012, 09:53:56 PM: thats what i used to think to until someone put it to me this way, " what if it is completely white and has one spot of regular color, is it still considered an albino?" I dont think they can draw a line due to that. :dunno:
Thats just my :twocents:

Post by: Michelle_Nelson on March 18, 2012, 11:40:58 PM: If the eyes are Blue than it isn't a true Albino.

I agree a Life Size mount would have been pretty awesome

Maybe it used to be, but not any more. When I first arrived in WA I saw an albino, and mentioned it to someone. They said "oh good thing you didn't shoot it, it's illegal to shoot them here". I researched it and it is no longer illegal to shoot an albino in WA.

You can't find any regulation that prohibits it, cause it's not there.

Title: Re: white coyote !
Post by: predatorpro on March 22, 2012, 11:54:44 AM: luecistic means it lacks all color pigments,they dont develop any pigment cells, albino means it has a reduction of melanin and will not be pure white....but more of a yellowish tint to it
