Is this the Fur Harvesters coyote grading video that everyone's talking about?

Its the one I seen...spent 90% of the time on the Beaver grading process for some reason

Instead of an hour explaining beaver which are worth nothing would've been nice to see a more in depth one on yotes and foxes can't wait for nafas version. I thought their muskrat one was very well done.

"From Marsh to Market" is excellent. NAFA also made an outstanding four DVD set titled "Professional Fur Handling" specifically for The Wisconsin Trappers Association (WTA). Disc #1 - Beaver and Otter...Disc #2 - Muskrat and Mink....Disc #3 - Raccoon, Fisher, Marten and Bobcat.....Disc #4 - Fox, Coyote, Opossum and Skunk. I was fortunate enough to track a copy down from a WTA Board member who saw my post on T-man looking for a copy. I think that it cost me $30 plus shipping.

Two years ago I made an official request to NAFA requesting that they make a DVD on grading coyotes and I was told that it was in the works. I've discussed it with people within the ATA in casual conversation and they have been told the same. Awhile back NAFA had an open house where they had a coyote grading demo. How hard would it have been to video the demo much like the Fur Harvesters video above?

Given the controversy of the last auction I think that it would be a good time to lobby hard to get NAFA to get that video made.
