Have they not got the coolest densest fur? Used to get them at the fur house I used to work at some two decades ago. Usually southern ones.

Throbak.....I used checkin.gov after I caught it and then brought the carcass and the skinned out fur to our local Dnr office......they gave me a tag for the fur and kept the carcass.....they offered to check it in for me to....had I not already done so.......really wasnt bad.......but if you didn't have anywhere close to get your tag......I could see that being frustrating!

First I checked it in online and printed out the temp tag form.
Then I called the CO on his cell phone, he came to my house that night, got the carcass and put the tag on it for me. He was about as excited as I was.
Could not have been easier.
