Its very simple

there are 3 legal ways to get a unskinned coyote from someone in Alberta to skin/send to auction

1) You can be gifted a legally obtained coyote

2) 100$ yearly fur buyer licence (Class 1) allows for you to buy a legally obtained coyotes if the person brings it to the location on your license
ie) you CANNOT go to the sellers location and 'pick it up' from them if you buy it under this license, this license does not allow you to transport purchased unskinned coyotes

3) 500$ yearly fur buyer license (Class 2) allows you to travel to the sellers location and buy and transport a legally obtained coyote

to get either fur buyer licence you need a place such as a stand alone garage/shed/workshop not attached to your house that will be inspected by F&W before they sell you a licence

so if you only have a garage attached to a house in any interior or exterior way, you will be denied from buying either 100$ or 500$ fur buyer license

If you get a coyote from someone in a way not listed above, it is illegal and you can be charged with fur trafficking
