I don't have any fresh coyotes to show the techniques, but here's the tools. The baseball bat is just a cheap one that I picked up for a few dollars. I cut the handle end off and rounded it over. I have a couple of pieces of pipe that are welded into a T and the bat slides into the top piece of pipe and is held in place by jamming it tight. I slip the coyote's head over the fat part of the bat and then use the knife shown to slice a thin layer of meat off. Keep the hide tight against the bat with one hand and use the knife with the other. After a little practice, you'll get the knack and it goes pretty fast.
For the ears, I cut them off at the butts when I'm skinning and then go back with my ear turning tool. You just start separating the leather and cartilage on the back of the ear with a knife (about 1/2" is all I go) and then slide the tips of the tool in between the leather and cartilage. Squeeze the tool gently and work it towards the tips. I also turn it sideways and squeeze it out towards the sides. Once I've made it to the tip, I open the tool all the way and it'll tear through to the outside. Then I can pull the leather down the side with my fingers until I get to the butts where I cut it off. Remove the cartilage and then pin the ears towards the eyes.
Next time I'm doing a coyote, I'll try to get some pics of the action.
