What to do with coyote pelts.

Looking to do some predator control at the camp. Got several yotes on camera sticking around. Is there anything worthwhile to do with the pelts? Hunting in north Louisiana live in south Louisiana

Yote pelts from northern states are far better than those down south. Have friends in Iowa that trap and tan the pelts professionally. From what they tell me the market is down, virtually no money to be made on coyotes

Tan em and hang ‘em on the wall, I have a bobcat, fox, otter, and a coon that we trapped on my place, makes interesting conversations

Tan the hides yourself
Or you can skin em out, salt them (non-iodined salt), and send them to a tannery if you have extra cash, don’t mind the turnaround time, and would rather not drink a bunch of beer tending to the skins.

Basically worthless in their raw form. Could tan as a camp decoration for someone. But from a monetary gain standpoint, dont bother.

Worth more than crow meat, but that's about it.

As others have mentioned, skin, tan, and display at your camp or man room. Southern coyotes have prime fur in Jan/Feb. After skinning , fleshing , washing and stretching they’re worth $8-10 if they were trapped. Pelts with sewn bullet holes are worth less. Some buyers won’t even purchase coon or fox (red & grey) pelts right since there’s no market.
My good friend harvested these 150 prime coyotes in Northern Utah around December 2004. The fur buyer gave him an average of $110 per pelt.
In todays market, Western coyotes that are prime and heavy bring $30 ~ 40 and most are sold to the Chinese
