Shawners,

Sorry for the slow response but I must have somehow missed your post.

Yes you can sell the coyote to a local fur buyer if you shot it, however, you are not allowed to trap the animal unless you have the proper training (Trapper Education Course) and a Trappers Licence.

January is the best time to harvest coyotes as they are most prime at this time.

Local fur buyers will buy coyotes in the raw (unskinned), however, they will pay a lot less for them this way. If the coyote is shot up too bad you will also get less for the animal as there is going to be some sewing required.

A coyote that isn't shot up too bad, sold raw, will usually fetch you between $10 and $20 - the price will be set by the fur buyer.

Hope this helps,
Rob
