Do you feel sad selling them?

Buying them is Roy Rasmussen, who drove down from Montana.

He's sorting through the grades, or quality, of the antler.

After loading them into Rasmussen's giant horse trailer, it's time to figure out the price tag.

The nicest grade of antler is about $14 a pound.

It's about a $10,000 check for Bosworth.

Rasmussen is a middleman of sorts.

He'll buy even more antlers and resell them over the next year for a little more money.

How much antler are you selling a year?

Like, are we talking tens of thousands of pounds?

Back of the napkin math, $300,000 on the low end.

Rasmussen got in the business about 40 years ago.

In countries like China and Mongolia, antlers are pulverized into a powder for tea and extracts, supposedly to help with arthritis and low energy.

Antlers are also highly sought after in high-end mountain home decor, like chandeliers and table legs.

But one of the bigger markets?

Dog chews.

Nicholas spent decades managing luxury hotels.

Now he cuts up antlers into dog chews at his home in Colorado, fully replacing his prior income.

One of the canine customer's favorites.

Those will cost you about 25 bucks.
