Cute little buggers...but my cats would freak if I brought that home.

That is a great mount! totally takes me back to living on the island. Man were they a pest back then:-D. You sure have captured the "look" they certainly perform when you find one of their dens. Though there is usually a pretty pissed off Moma coming down the tree as well:wink:.

Thanks for sharing.

I think it should go for around $1700. Thats just my guess. The women will be a sucker for that one. Beautiful piece.

BigBoar,

You're wallet wouldn't have been thick enough! These little coons ended up going for about $3300 if my memory is correct! The wolf hide sold for anwhere between about $600 and $1200; and sold about 9 times!
The one fellow bought it and immediately re-donated it for auction again, and finally kept it after buying it 4 times.

And WildImages;

That was a unique and awesome job on it!
