Also, you should think about sending a panflet with every hat to explain the importance of fur, and why they got a dead animal on their head for lack of better words.

Sounds like tree hugger words.

Definately!
It would partically depend on the target market we are aiming towards. If we are trying to ease the minds of moms of course use those words.
If we want kids to read them they obvioulsy have to have easier words and pictures.
It all depends on who the target audience in the advartising is

I don't know if this has been mentioned, or if there would be any interest, but there is crushing poverty in Alaskan villages-as well as one of the reservations near where my Dad grew up. Those are kids who I'm betting would absolutely treasure just about anything warm to wear. Fur is a traditional part of most native cultures anyway...so why not? No huge shipping fees, middlemen, etc.

Just a thought from out here on the perimeter....

Hopefully this will put a smile on your face.

I received an update on the boy (Jens) in Nome who got a fox hat. He is absolutely loving his hat. I have permission to post a photo of him wearing his hat.

Enjoy your day.

Heck give your landowners a pelt every now and then, I just skinned out a couple yotes for a landowner (his yotes) and he was thrilled to get them. Told him to take them to a taxidermy guy for the tanning so I don't get caught up in the middle of it.


Was born in a Big City Will die in the Country OK with that!

Sad deal.... I just saw an update on Jens the boy from Nome who received the 1st fur hat (see pic above/page 8) is in bad shape.
The below is taken from his gofundme account. No I am not seeking funds for him and his family, I am just giving everyone an update and if you can pray for him and his family.


"after 4 years of battling cancer for Jens...the team told us today that Jens liver is so badly infected with cancer that too do anything more would cause more toxicity and kill him. His liver levels are severely high to do anything more would be unsafe..with that we were told that there would be nothing more they can do to help him as chemo could potentially kill him because of the high liver numbers. We are all still in shock....we cant even process all of this at the moment. I am having my two oldest boys fly down tonight to spend the duration of time with him. We do not know....we were told 1 month potentially 2...but I do not foresee that. Jens birthday is September 1st and he would be turning 9....I do not know what the future holds, all I know is I am here ...we are going to be here for the duration and love him more than ever. Do anything he wants when he wants for as long as we can."
