Description Gosh, the apartment feels so empty without these guys hanging up on the walls :<

I can never seem to get a full group shot of all my pelts, but this will be the closest I can get until I can take them to my grandmother’s farm (large field for outdoor pics :3). There're a few missing due to being out for commissions or are currently in the mail.

I will say that there are a few that I’ll be selling in the next few months. Unfortunately, I haven’t bonded as closely as I would have hoped with some of the pelts, and instead of using them for crafts I’d rather send them off to new homes. Close friends get priority so I’ll be contacting them first prior to putting them up on either here or eBay.

Are any of these for sale? I really like the large (wolf?) under that white rabbit and the two white and grey ones at the back (especially the one 5th from the right when you look at the picture!)

Is that a brindle coyote in the back? We have some funny coloured ones (black, silver-ish, red, and a gorgeous dark brown monster I've seen a couple times) that run wild around here, but I've never seen a brindled. Dog mix maybe?

I'm so jealous of your collection, mine just got started, I can't imagine how long this must have taken to get! And the paws on that lynx, like, wow!

I love that lynx. I would love a lynx pelt, especially because of their cool gigantic paws. Unfortunately, they're protected here in Michigan. That one you have is especially gorgeous.

I'll have to keep an eye out, because that platinum is catching my attention.

BlackBackedJackal In reply to DigitalSero [2013-05-14 05:54:58 +0000 UTC]

You can get one in Michigan as long as it comes with a blue tag attached to it. Your state requires that you have proof the animal was legally harvested, but that's it (I have a friend in Michigan who owns a lynx pelt) :3!

DigitalSero In reply to BlackBackedJackal [2013-05-14 10:18:14 +0000 UTC]

I thought protected animals were off limits? I know lynx are fine in some other states. My DNR always gives me mixed answers.

BlackBackedJackal In reply to DigitalSero [2013-05-14 10:59:32 +0000 UTC]

Here's the jist of the laws for you:

"Only skulls and hides (not claws) of black bears may be traded. Cougar parts may not be bought or sold, and cougar roadkill may not be collected; cougar (and lynx, along with other endangered native species) trophies may under certain circumstances be imported; there are restrictions on importing cervid parts."

So you can't get a lynx from your own state since they're protected, but you can buy a legally harvested one from a state that allows the hunting of lynx, like Alaska ! Basically, if it's a tagged animal, you have proof that it's not from your state and can import it.

Do you hunt the animals yourselves? How do you end up obtaining such a variety? It's really cool! Many people don't appreciate pelts anymore They see fur and instantly get all 'PETA' about it. Oh is that a winter coated weasel I see in the front? Or ferret...? Ermine...? Maybe mink...? I get all those little guys confused Anyways, cool stuff!

For a wallhanger quality ermine, $10 is the normal going price I've seen.

I find them beautiful both ways. I don't like it when animal get poached or tortured to death. Nothing should suffer like that. But these animals either died of natural causes or had quick painless deaths and I respect them as if they're still alive.

Nah, Blackjack will be staying with me for the remainder of her self life . The ones I know I'm offering up for sure are one of my rabbits, my squirrel and my ermine (possibly a coyote as well). Waiting to hear back from a few of my friends before I officially post them for sale.
