We have a fur buyer in our huinting group. He takes the hides to a big auction in canada some time in or about May.
We are able to sell the prime winter furs and once thr spring shedding is over. The summer hides are not worth as much. If they have the mange or bad fur we put them in a swamp if the land owner doesn't mind. If they do mind we bring them home and bury in the pit out back where the skined one go after we are finished with them.
Yes we also eat some mostly young ones back straps and rear quarters. recently was told to take other parts and grind it into burger for meat loaf and such.
To find a buyer of fur check with your states trapper group.Also learn to sew hides.
