Thinning the population or will you do something with the pelts? I got a real pretty boar coon this summer that would have made a real nice hat if I knew how

Thinning the population and training the dogs mostly. We used to always skin them out and they would keep the pelts to sell at the end of season, but anymore they're not worth enough to justify the time skinning. We tossed them in the back of their truck and I never asked what they're doing with them this year. My brother kept a hide from a coon he trapped in that same timber last year and he's working on some moccasins/ boot covers but I don't think he's finished them.
