Good job there buddy , like you say , too bad they arent worth much at market . After seeing the care you take of coyotes I know these will be awesome as well . Too bad you live so far away , I'd have you skinning my dogs too .

Nice! I was wondering if anyone trapped raccoons, you never see posts about them on here. I'd be tanning them and making hats from them. Everyone NEEDS a Daniel Boone raccoon hat!

Are you interested in selling a raccoon pelt? There are none in this area and I'd love to get a hat made with one. I have a fur buyers license.
