How do you go about selling hides??

Whenever you get a coyote,raccon,beaver or any animal's hide where do you sell it too. I read all of the posts about fur prices going up but do you sell it to taxidermist or what? If I was looking to sell a hide would I just contact the place and arrange details or would I need to ship it off. Thanks for any input..

I would like to know this , too. I plan on starting to coyote hunt pretty seriously after deer season, and it would be nice to put a couple dollars in my pocket as a result.

There are local buyers, Regional and National Buyers.. Do some asking around or calling.. Also most trapping magazines have a list of buyers in them..
