I don't currently trap (although I would like to one day) but I have started coyote calling this year. I haven't done much yet but will definitely be doing more this winter. However I have a few questions about what to do with the fur after the kill. I currently split my time between home and up at college. At college I just do not have the time or the space to treat furs but that's where I do most of my hunting, so I agreed with a trapper to give him any coyotes I kill so that he can he make a little extra money.
When I'm back at home on break though I have the opportunity to treat any furs I have. I have yet to decide if I want to hang them on the wall or sell them. What ever I do I still have to figure out how to treat the furs. I'm familiar with skinning and fleshing but not sure where to go from here. It would be greatly appreciated if you guys could post a list of the steps needed for each direction I decide to go in (wall hanger or giving to a licensed buyer). I know some of the stickies on this forum have excellent detailed explanations of each, but every time I try searching for a method I'm given different steps and not everyone does it the same, this especially true on YouTube lol. Thanks in advance.
