i like your way of skinning aprophet. I might have to try it that way but it's hard to break a habit.

I was hopeing to see more on this topic. So I'm going to try to give it a boost. In PA we don't have a spring rat season, are the glands still useful from fall/winter rats. What about raccoon, fox, mink, beaver, skunk, OPOSSUM, lol. I would like to be able to take as much as I can from the animals I trap. I think I may have seen some stuff about fox and beaver in the archives, but figured since this post was already up, wouldn't hurt to try to find some new info.
Thanks guys

Glands from fall and winter rats are basically non existent. They usually don't become engorged until spring. I would like to see a movie or pictorial of removing bobcat glands. I don' catch many very often so if I do I would like to make the most out of them.
