Beaver looks a little low but everything else looks like it went good in today's market. With only 26 (beaver) hard to say if that is a good true average. I noticed that there wasn't any otters on the sale.

Nice looking fur. Some of the prices are pretty decent.


Most in this country have things people in other countries only dream about. Yet, they want America to be more like those other countries.

WOW, almost $56 for Montana type pine Marten is more than good. The sale in Thompson Manitoba before Christmas only brought around $40+ USD for northern Canadian Marten.

I'm thinking that a good number of these cats will probably end up in Greece.
Yes farriers.

Curious that western Marten prices have held up from sale to sale. I guess We will see in a couple of weeks if it means anything in the broader fur market.
