Hides?
« on: October 16, 2004, 12:31:29 PM »
Seeing all these pic's of hairy wild hogs, I'm wondering what ya'll do with the hides, etc.  I know "industrial" hog processors use "everything but the squeal".  I can fully appreciate that tasty meat; but what do you do with that hairy hide, etc. (if anything)?

PeterF,
The dogs love them. I frankly don't do any thing with them. I know that pig skin makes some of the best gloves but i have no idea how to treat the hides so i just throw them away.........good luck........Joe......

I Germany I've seen hogs laid out on walls just like we'd do a bear skin rug...  Pretty nice, actually.
