Hey guys, I skinned my first bobcat last night. I built a stretcher form out of 1x2's and it worked great. The hide is very dry and it stretched over night. I'm not entirely sure of where I go from here. I'm not going to sell the fur, I want to keep it as it is my first one. I know that I need to soak and wash the hide but I need some advice on what to use and how to do it. The easiest way would be the best, but I'm open to everything. Thanks for the help in advance.

What do you want to do with it ? are you going to have it tanned ?

Then you needed to salt it first and dry it then.

Then you can tan it.

Yes I want to tan it and I want to do it myself. I still need to salt it even though it is drying on the stretcher? Thanks.
