Congrats-you will never forget your first anything.
Nice looking fox

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

Jealous! We have same as none here.

Act like a blank, get treated like a blank. Insert your own blank!

Nice catch, looks like it would be a good one to tan.

Congratulations! Hope a few more will follow!

Skinning them will come easier. Don’t apply too much pressure in one spot, like your knuckles or fingers while pulling. Bunch the hide up and pull all together. The warmer they are, the easier to skin, so I’d recommend skinning a few warm to get the hang of it. They’ll bleed a little more but peel easier.

Nice job on your first fox

You will never forget the first one for sure. Nice Pic.

I had issues on the ear and face. Which I thought was odd since I’m used to skinning coons I figured the head would be the same but I had some issues.
