Raccoon Pelt Processing
A look at the scraping and tanning process with Gloria raccoon...
•
After scraping the hide one last time, I mixed up an egg and lard solution, rubbed it on the skin side, and let it sit for about 10 minutes.
•
Then comes the real challenge, as it dries you need to keep stretching the fibers out until it’s totally dry. This took about 2-3 hours of continually working it to make sure it stays soft and doesn’t stiffen up.
•
From there, I’ll be stitching up the tail, and sewing up any holes with sinew and a needle, and salting the deer to dry them out. Then Gloria is preserved, soft, and supple, and ready for a night out in town.
•
Feel free to check out my previous video on how to skin a raccoon. And several other animal processing videos on my igtv.

Thanks to @jessicaalign for helping to pick up and scrape her, and @sashabotanica for the help yesterday with tanning and stretching. We now have a raccoon headdress or throw rug. Note: this can also be cut later into shaping for a craft, including a raccoon hat.
