My wife will help process and cook farm raised animals and deer.  She will cook wild rabbits.  She will not touch anything else.

My wife helps me butcher and process deer and other critters. She just finds too many things that look back at her in the freezer.

if u don,t tan it yourself look for fur a fur dealer in your area.The 1 in my area is very reasonable for price.I just dropped off a red fox and it was only $18 to have it tanned.He sends a bunch of stuff to NY to have done and its a good quality tan.I do taxidermy part time and the tanneries i use charge a lot more (example-that same red would cost $45-55 bucks plus shipping both ways.We,ve had just about everything possible tanned and it all comes back nice.Be careful around the ears and eyes when u skin the head-good luck and have a great day-Lloyd
