Default they sell for more generally

As then the taxidermy trade may be interested instead of just the fur trade.

I would if you are unsure. Are you selling the pelt or taking it in for a rug? If so I bet the taxi would appreciate you leaving as much of the hide intact.

Hi Mark, I would suggest that you do it up to tax spec, just for the experience. Do the ears, lips, pads and toes. Becuz this one may have been run over and damaged, where you can't see right now, it might not fetch much for $, so the practice will pay for itself on the next one you get. Make sure you have all the tools required b4 you thaw him, specifically a stretcher and maybe a comealong. Enjoy yourself.....
