prime fur is worth some dough, not nearly as much as a cat. here is some recent fur auction prices. offers of 30 to 40 for Dakota/Montanna. western averages were 25 to 30 for tops (best fur), 15 to 20 for southwestern on the top end. Western yotes bring the better prices. Northeast and southeast are the lowest prices for the fur. You will have to case skin it, flesh it, and dry it on a stretcher. If you have a big hole, you need to sew it also. I sell all my fur. I trap alot also. the fur sales from yotes buy my gear and shells for the season and some extras. If you need info on skinning and fleshing and such, send me a personal message, i will email you the details. Best fur is from dec to feb or early march, depending where you are. then they begin to rub and its not worth much. I can also give you a web page for a taxidermy site that I sell alot of yotes on. They bring 50 to 75 for a real nice colored specimen. Good luck and let the fur fly.
