Show us your coyote mounts

Unread postby Horizontal Hunter » Mon Dec 21, 2015 2:39 pm

Stanley's thread and Backstraps post about his coyote mount on a limestone pedestal got me thinking.

What did you do with your coyote kills, other than returning them to nature? I would love to see the mounts , pelts, and other inventive things that the forum members have done with their coyotes. I have only shot the one and I returned her to nature so it would be terrific to see what others have done with theirs.

Thank you,

Bob

I've chopped the tails off mine and anticipated salting/curing them to hang.
I always forgot by the end of the season until I smelled rotting tail and tossed...

Thanks for posting the pictures BackStraps. That's a really beautiful mount.

Here's the one I arrowed in 2010:

Now, when I get yotes, I'll skin them down and get them tanned. Here's one from last February. I had the hide stored in the freezer for a few months and it got some freezer burn which created holes when it went through the tanning process which is why it's kind of mangy looking:

I'll keep getting the hides tanned unless I get the black phase I'm after. :pray:
