Coyotes we got 45 tops averaged about 30 and they were good coyotes from last winter. Beaver we brought a little of every size and averaged 13. Rats were about 2.50 average, otter were about 18 average and they were good otter. That’s about the only things we brought, so don’t know about other species.

He also buys beaver oil sac but not sure what he pays for them. The guy ahead of me sold some. Left there and went to check traps to find a bobcat in the daughter's set. She was happy to get money for her rats and otter but the bobcat topped her day. She is 12 and love to go trapping. She is learning well. Wish I had more time to trap....
