It's an Orange County orange coyote.

Caught this one right across the road from my farm also the same location I caught my first double on coyotes

I caught one blonde one, but it had some undercoat isssue so it wasnt worth tanning. Would love to catch a black one, but have never seen one in this part of the world.

Got pictures of this one this year but no traps set yet.

Coolest coyote I ever caught.

Here's one from trap to mount it the one on the bottom.

That's an interesting and well done mount!

The one pictured was caught in south central PA IN 2018 .At the time it was just my 3rd coyote ever .As you can see it's back was almost silver and it's belly was very pale .I shipped it to FHA .for the May 2018 sale .It was graded 3x-2x LG SELECT HVY A-B. AND IT SOLD FOR $125.00. I was very happy to get that much for it .Even though I HAD A LIMITED AMOUNT OF KNOWLEDGE ABOUT COYOTES AND HOW THEY ARE GRADED it was oblivious that this one was better than average Just so I did not get the idea that trapping was a money making endeavor at the FHA SALE IN Jan 2021 I sold 23 red fox for a total of $114.50 .And just to see how it can be I received $5.00 more dollars for 6 raccoon . So not quite $125 .00 But along came my sale of a catch of 3 coyote I had in the 2021 season 3 COYOTES for which I got $9.00 more dollars Now for the total of $128.50 for 30 pelts .But it was a very nice coyote especially for a novice coyote trapper .I AM TRULY AMAZED AT THE BLACK PHASE COYOTE S pictured here . This is what makes trapping so much fun You just never know what will be waiting for you when you come around the next turn. Thanks for all the cool pictures This an an awesome t

one of the new guys that i helped start to trap a few years ago 3-4 , got an all-black coyote and a blonde Coyote this year i have never got either in 50+ years lol

Yes I had other trappers catching coyotes as incidentals all around me for about 30 years before I finally caught my first one .But I am certain the young man you helped out to get his start has a smile on his face every time he thinks about those coyotes. And remembers the guidance you shared with him to make him a trapper .

Caught a pretty red one a few years back. Never caught a black or blonde but would love to

Funny this thread was so recent. I said on Monday I have never caught a black but would love to. Got her today

Back in the day Pawnee County had some real red nasties. Maybe the genetics have improved!

That is a beaut Marty! But then you are real close to the Sandhills.

First coyote of this season. She was beautiful!

About 30 years ago A friend showed up at my place of employment .I drove a forklift and he knew I was in and out of the building all the time .He just waited for me to come out .When I saw him I knew something was up .He came over top me and said look in the back of my Chevy Blazer ..I drove over and looked in .There was an off color coyote in the back .He ask what it was I said coyote .He said are you sure how do you know .I don't want to go to the taxidermy shop if it is a stray dog . I SAID LOOK AT IT'S NOSE AND TEETH . I t is not a dog .But as pretty as some of the off colored ones can be you have to think some of them have some dog genetics mixed in their DNA .This has been a great thread with some really interesting pics.

Lots of colors around here. Have had 6 blacks and lots of reds. Had one once that was yellow but did not








get a pic.

Love the pure white and Black one in the middle

I've seen a few black coyotes and shot one.
Also seen a few buddies have taken. Have not seen one well furred yet.

And Red coyotes I dispise even looking at.
