Anyone have info on the kanas sale?

TTT

I don't have official results but from what I saw cats and beaver sold well. Top cat was either $300 or $310 I think, a couple other cats went over $200. I would guess the cat average was around $100 from what I saw. Not a lot of beaver on the sale but saw a group of green skinned beaver go for $27 and some finished over $30. Coyotes could hardly get a bid, coons sold cheap probably $5 top. The few skunks that were there sold well. Not a lot of other fur there, a couple red fox I saw for probably $10 average.

Number's, averages, clearances?

Thank You at least that is some thing

Good deal

Beaver $37.00 top & $21.39 average.
Bobcat $320.00 top & $93.42 average.
Coyote $10.00 top & $4.02 average.
Opossum $1.75 top & $1.07 average.
Raccoon $6.50 top & $2.53 average.
Red Fox $12.50 top & $10.25 average.
Stripped Skunk $10.25 top & $7.66 average

Finished and green fur together, although there really wasn't much difference in price between the two anyway. I don't have total numbers sold.

hard to believe not much different between put up fur and green ?

Not sure why, but that's really not that uncommon at these state sales.

4 dollar average for Kansas Coyotes?

Powers that be have opened up night shooting with thermals. Amazing isnt it? 1000 dollar rifles, dollar a shot ammo and 3000 dollar scopes. 350 for an E caller. All to shoot 4 dollar coyotes. Have heard rumors of cats deer and otter being shot too though. maybe that offsets expense a little?

I was talking with Matt Peek on Sat about that very thing, Danny. He sounded like there is a shake up coming, possibly one way or another!

I know of a ratio of 200 trapped coyotes to one bobcat on a ranch..???????????

I get your point (and agree), you are WAY low on your prices though! Which makes it worse!

Keep in mind those coyotes are probly being eradicated not for the $4 but to protect newborn calves and cows having calves. Ranchers have a different view on coyotes than the average sportsman. After seeing a chewed up baby calf or cow it leaves a bitter feeling.

They started letting them shoot at night here and I know some fire on anything that lights up in the scope.

That may be true, but some of us wouldn't skin one for $4

I would say more coyote are killed for protecting deer fawn than cattle. I k ow it is around my hunting properties.

News Flash: those people aren’t skinning a yote, that they shot at night with a rifle, for a $4 pelt.
