Just got my first coyote and want to get the hide tanned for a wall mount. Who's a good person to go to close to the Lisbon area?
Trapped it about 8am. Was on the other side of the farm when it hit it about 8am (watched the deer near there bolt). By the time I got over it had tried to squeeze under the fence (2in gap) and did the dirty work for me. The upside is no damage to the body that I could find.Also just curious--What time of day did you take it and how?
You were the first person I thought of, then I remembered you moved. Its hard for me to get over there bc of fam and work issues otherwise you'd have it.If driving doesn't bother you, there is me.
Ty. Found somebody else out that way, but will keep him on my list.I have used Jason Poole (Poole's Taxidermy) in Taylorsville for a deer and squirrel and was pleased with his work. He's reasonably priced and just north of Mt Airy off of route 26 which is spitting distance from Howard County.
Nice looking dog. Not so sneaky now!
Turned out real nice. Who did you use? I've seen them around, but haven't had. Chance to shoot one yet. The first time I saw one was a good distance away while in my climber. I thought it was a dog at first until I noticed it's gate while moving thru the woods which wasn't like a dog at all. I've also seen more of there scat around which has been full of deer hair.
I gotta say, I'm shocked at the diversity as well. I never thought the development reforestation areas would have such a huge positive effect on the wildlife. I live close to where you saw the eagle. Haven't seen it yet myself, but does not surpise me. The amount and variety of wildlife in the square mile around that interchange is insane. Saw my first live wild mink just before dusk when I was walking the dog. Had one get hit next to the farm last year. Was so big I thought it was a fisher. About 25 years ago (god I feel old) there were beaver building a dam by the park and ride at 144 and 97. We went and got video of them on my grandfather's camcorder before the county/state wiped them out.
I know some of the Mullinix's. Went to school with Brian. Haven't talked to him for about 3 years or so. I know a lot of farmers out there, but it is too far to go hunting, though I would love to go Coyote hunting. We don't have those around here.
