Coyote Pelt

[Bugbear]

taxidermist or tanner.
And don't watch the thing being done either. I think you can keep the carcus in a (sealed) plastic bag in the fridge until the... icky deed.

I second the idea of a professional taxidermist. Having cased several animals myself, it takes only a small slip of the knife to ruin an otherwise beautiful pelt.

Additionally, please check your municipal regulations concerning firing a firearm in a residential area and the state wildlife regulations concerning coyotes. Remember, ignorance of the law is no defense.

Cordially,
David

With the high incidence of rabies in Georgia, even the smallest slip of the knife could make such a pelt mighty costly. I just saw a coyote that had evidently been smacked by a car here in Cartersville, but really didn't think it worth the gamble.
