Default Rabbit fur left on?

Planning to go Rabbit hunting this holiday season and im wondering if i have problems skinning them(if i get any) can i freeze them with fur and guts in and skin the when i get home. Would this be bad? Would freezing them, warming them to skin and then freezing them, then cooking them be bad?

Thanks
TheKi

If it was me, I would pop the guts out if I was going to let them freeze. Hide can stay on. But that's just me.

Default Rabbit Saddle

I would only take the back legs, the rest is a little stringy.

It takes about 2 minutes to skin and gut a rabbit

Do it right away. If you need instruction, pm me

I remember watching my cousin's skinning rabbits back home, kind of funny. They would make a cut near the rabbits paw and blow it up like a balloon. Skin came off pretty easy after that.

If you are saving the fur, its a bit different
