Cleaning Squirrels

[Lostinoz]

There is a simple, effective cleaning method that hunters have been using for generations. I call it the "Slit, step, pull method" of skinning.

Also, a squirrel cleaning video on YouTube

Did he? I couldn't bring myself to watch all of it. If you come across a better video, please post it! Thanks!

it looked like he cut something off the body and put it into the bag. my wife said it was similar to how she did as a kid put they used all but head, feet, tail and guts.

looks like he cut the legs off.and a 1/4 of the back then wasted the rest.

I always made a cut Across the back , then with both hands pulled the skin in opposite directions,removed the feet and head very similar to the video except I removed the intestines and cooked as much as I could. There is very little meat to be had from the back and ribs and that's probably why he discarded that part of the animal.
