If anyone wants info, pick up the phone and call the auction manager. No one on this site has anything to do with the auction from an agent or management position. Do this please. I’ve sold there for years and will continue to. This is the first year in 4-5 years that I haven’t helped them check fur in. Sure missed going out there.

Maybe this is the proposed ban?“The North American Model for Wildlife Conservation says you are not supposed to kill wildlife for commerce and that’s exactly what’s being done in Colorado. It’s giving all ethical and fair chase hunting a black eye,” Marshall said. "You learn something new everyday. I guess we have been doing this wrong for ever.

Imagine that will hurt their sales in future years. It's been like that for a while and we certainly had the best sale from what I could tell again this year of any in North America.

Seems like trying to hide the commercial aspect of trapping is rather short sighted. Sounds like a good way to end up with laws that allow you to kill nuisance animals with the stipulation that the pelts be destroyed.
Now I'm wondering who came up with this particular strategy. I see the light bulb going on over your head! Of course I'm just teasing, but that is the way it is in Colorado! Instead of pro-active management of furbearer populations in the winter when the fur is prime and the fur can be utilized, we kill them during warm weather when the critters are actively annoying people, and then throw their pelts in the garbage. This prevents someone from wearing the fur. It makes sense to the anti and environmental crowd, but not to someone who believes in preventing waste of wildlife. They promote plastic, oil based faux fur, just what we need for more plastic pollution. Don't try to make sense to them, this is their religion (remember the "Golden Calf" story in the bible).

That is not what information that was sent to me. Beaver and skulls were good and the rest not so much. But we can't prove it here since we have no results.

It’s ok to destroy native habitat to commercialize urban sprawl. That’s different. Once and done, wildlife is extinct. It isn’t as obvious > to some<

yes you are right tom but when you hear nothing you dont know if it even sold and a price of 1 dollar average or 50 dollar average will give you a little idea 1 dollar means no one bid 50 means there might have been more than 1 buyer wanting it Colorado had fur from 15 states this past sale. A Majority of it from Kansas, Oklahoma, New Mexico, some from North Carolina, Missouri, Mississippi. How would you like to figure that out, an explanation would be nice. Two small lots from Wyoming and very little from Colorado. Maybe 70% of the cats from Oklahoma alone. Explain to me how to digest that?
