A large whole coon or a gallon of regular gasoline.
Ever think you would hear this comparison?

I can get over a gallon and a half of gas for a whole coon here. Probably more if I encounter the end user.

Is that before or after the collapse...?

If you are strictly talking a whole carcass large coon that is brought to a buyer. Than I would find it hard to believe that anywhere in America today that any buyer would pay above 3 bucks for that coin. So gas it is. Imo

One kid I took along on the trapline for a couple years sold his fur last year to a local buyer. At first the buyer didn't want any of his coon even though they were all skun, fleshed, and dried. The buyer bought all his other fur and finally said he would buy all the coon for $1 each. I told the kid, I hope you didn't sell them for that price. He didn't.

On the brighter side, he averaged $3.50 on the rats.


The difference between animals and humans is that animals would never let the dumbest ones lead the pack.

Only way the coon would be worth more is if i could drop 20 coon at the gas station and put 20 gallons of gas in my truck
