tanning hides ? worth the trouble ?

[Trapper7]

If you're planning to sell your fur to a fur buyer, don't tan it. Most fur buyers won't buy the fur if it's been tanned. It should be scraped free of all meat & fat, then dried. If it's a coyote or fox, fur side out, a coon, fur side in.

I sell all my fur to NAFA. where it is taken to an international auction. I think you get your best price that way.

If you're shooting your fur with a rifle, you'll have to sew up all holes and wash out all blood.
