not snared but I have eaten raccoon. it reminded me very much of turkey leg meat kind of stringy but otherwise fine.
at least with raccoon skin remove all the fat we could with a knife and the glands inside of legs front and rear then par boiled to further remove fat then finished cooking however you like.
I know of a guy who saves young coyotes to eat , he shoots them and not trapped , he served in Korea and ate dog over there so coyote is no concern to him.

Coon, groundhog and such are wonderful table fare but preparing it properly is the key. I would assume the same for canines, I'd give it a go and see if you like it.
I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....
I do not know anyone, including me, that ate coyote meat and called it good. Its pretty bad. Most everything else it depends on who you ask. There isn't any of them unhealthy to eat. Just have to cook taste and see for yourself.

Only land Trapping here in NJ is done with Cable Snares.
cable snares may only be used under ice here in WI, all our land cables must be cable restraints with relaxing revers washer, deer stops and break away s hooks .

eating scavengers does not bother me...i eat catfish after all
I've had raccoon and tried fix - neither are winning any awards, but will do in a pinch. enough seasoning and crockpot or grill will do the trick.
I completely understand not wanting to waste the meat - but truth is its probably going to go to waste with freezer burn if you don't truly enjoy eating it. I know if I had them in my freezer, I'd be reaching for the beef, chicken, fish or venison before the coon, yote or possum everytime.
we trap for the fur, not the meat - and there isnt that much meat on most them critters cept maybe a yote
I've eaten coon and let's just say I won't be eating it again. Based on how they smell I have no desire to try coyote. If you're thinking about eating otter, let me just save you the trouble and recommend against that as well.

Coon is one of my favorite meats supper tender and never taste over cooked fat and grease are easy to remove before cooking remove glands .I like to boil it off the bone .remove greese from top of water debone and store in ziplock freezer bags makes great meat for lunch on the go
I have eaten coon that was shot on drift trips. Cut into pieces, boiled, then fried. Good cold the next day in the boat. Goes with everything, even bourbon.
