Was the other guy wearing a Cowboy hat? If it was Allen, he has purchased a bunch of my Cats through the years. Any put up pics of your Cat ?

That is a beautiful cat! It is difficult to tell from the picture. Was it a fairly large cat? If you don't mind me asking, how do you secure the majority of your traps? Every area is so different. The best method I have found for my area is chained IDS.

Thanks all! He never said a grade, just a price. It was an average size female, I never did measure it but 36” would probably be pretty close. Kansas cat, all of my bobcat traps are on long chains, 10’ or so, and I use triple twisted baling wire to tie them to whatever is handy. This one was tied to that juniper, sometimes I’ll tie off to a 30 or 40 pound rock or break off a big tree limb for drags. That way all I have to hike up the mountain is traps, lure, wire and pliers.

I never use stakes up in the mountains, around here it’s so rocky you’d never get one more than 6” down in most places where the cats like to be

Interesting that Minnesota coyotes averaged more than northern Nevada coyotes.

Can you honestly say that without seeing them ? Not many fur buyers paying any amount sight unseen
