I'm not sure matted is the right term but every once in awhile I get coyotes with their tail more "cotton like" than long haired. I always sell these yotes rather than having them tanned, I know nothing magical will happen in the tanning process but are there any products that restore or enhance the look- making them more salvageable for tanning? Hard to see in the pictures but the center yote is what I'm talking about.

Sadly it is what it is nothing you can do besides brush and fluff it the best you can

A little late to the post but just got one like this. Will it lower the grading if left on or should I just cut it off.


Ya can't miss fur if yur traps are out somewhere.
Or so I've been told.

Brush it up a bit and leave it on.


Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.
