North American Fur Auctions (NAFA)
And Fur Harvesters (FHA)

You can check the web sites for latest prices and delivery cut off dates and dealers.

The cut off shipment dates are also on the Alberta Trappers (ATA)

Web site.

The fur market is very, very uncertain at this moment. Nobody knows how bad things really are at this time. Last years May sale, coyotes averaged about $25.00 as a true average with everything in. That was before the banking crisis started and the stock markets went into turmoil.

I can't see coyotes selling for less than $20.00 in the auction, but I also can't see them bringing a whole lot more than a $20.00 bill. I know nobody wants to hear that, but that's where things are at.

This is a good year to go ice fishing instead of coyote trapping.

Well obviously... why do you think there's all them nets in all them lakes???

[tth_12032]

since anyone is allowed to shoot coyotes, can anyone sell the fur or do you need a license? sorry for the ignorant question but what can I say, I am ignorant to trapping but curious.

As far as I know if you have a valid big game licence you can shoot and sell coyote hides provided you have permission to be on the land your hunting.This doesn't include snaring or trapping...........Harold

I'm pretty sure no license is required if you are an AB resident.

SALE OF WILDLIFE

The selling, buying, bartering, soliciting or trading in wildlife or wildlife parts, or offering to do so, is regulated under the Wildlife Act and Regulations. Many transactions are strictly prohibited, while others are regulated. For further information, please contact a Fish and Wildlife Division office.


Why take a chance call your wildlife division office. Also I read somewhere else in this forums that a permit was required. Just do a search for coyotes and it will bring you to earlier blog. Cheer

No licence is required if you are shooting them. When I ship my few furs, I just give them my wildlife certificate # and state that they were called and shot.
