I would not admit to that on a open forum not preserving the pelt of a furbearing animal is illegal. I have a tote full of nice prime pelt that have been tanned im holding onto them for a rainy day

Southwestern Ontario does not deem coyote as a furbearer. They are marked as varmint or predator. No season, no limit that I am aware of. If I'm wrong please feel free to correct me. Fox are a fur bearer, have a season, not sure if a limit on Fox? Actually further north you must purchase tags for coyote/ wolf. Two tags per year I believe.
 
Their January sale had an average of $37.81 with a high price of $74.00 for Eastern Coyotes. Western averaged $84.60 with a high of $174.00.
 
Seems Eastern usually run about 1/3 of Western considering AVERAGE prices.

Last info I saw was from last month 20-30 USD Eastern, 50-100 USD Western and US coyotes. Eastern average in the East US was 23.85 USD in January.

I've not seen the recent Canadian figures.
 
Dad's top was 191 $ with an average of 135 $ for 13 coyotes. South Eastern AB coyotes.
But he spends extra time to do it well. Obviously it's working.
He is reading to me off of the fur slip as I type this.
 
Eastern coyotes have always been discounted compared to western coyotes. Westerns had finer hair are referred to as pale coloured. Eastern have shorter guard hair more brown in colour and are almost always loaded with burrs and other stickers. They just don't have the value the westerns have.

Last year we got just under $74 for a southern Ontario manure pile fed yote, couple more were around $40 each but the rest were between $1 to $5. We get a lot with mange which have no value and most have no guard hair and a lot of peach fuzz fur. We gave them to a trapper this year in hopes he can strike it rich and retire?
