A few years back, my partner had some traps scattered around his farm and picked up a raccoon, just north of Westlock.. I don't believe it was near any buildings , just caught in a coyote snare on the fence line as I recall.. I found this quite funny, himself being an older trapper at the time and had never put one up before. So he thought they were finished fur out and had a real sweet time getting it turned. I don't recall what he got for it at the sale. He probably should have had it tanned and kept it around for something to talk--in the good old days..:lol..
