I need to flesh this coyote, never done it, but parts of it are dry. I kept it outside, frozen, for a week. I washed it once, and dried the fur. How do I get it back to fleshing stage? Can I flesh it if the fur is wet?

Wet a towel with cold water and stuff it inside the skin where the dry parts are.Roll it up fur out for a couple hours then the dry parts of the skin will be pliable enough to flesh.
I don't like fleshing a pelt when the fur is wet.Roll it up fur out in a dry towel and wring it out hard,repeat with another dry towel and the fur will be just damp and a lot better to flesh.


Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.
