dakidsmn OP trapper Joined: Feb 2013 mn	At 57 a decided that I was going to target skunks. Mostly a water trapper so I made up a few boxes and buckets. My friend asked me to help remove as many skunks, possum, and coons. He loves to hunt turkeys on his land. 1st night I ended up with 4 skunks, 2 possum, and a dozen coon. To say he is happy would be an understatement. I was planning on selling in the round to avoid the stink. I changed my mind and I skinned them and plan on tanning them and making something with them. The one male was way bigger than the other 3.

You are spot on. 50 bucks for the big one and 25 for the others. I kept them and will sew myself a hat.
