Crossed my mind about keeping the fur but no time to mess with it. Gotta work.
Probably not gonna eat it, don’t know if it carries anything.

If you do ever try, here are some tips. First, and most important, is to remove the glands from each leg. Look like wet ticks buried in the fat behind the knees on the back legs, armpits on the front legs. Removing most of the fat is preferred by most. Getting the internal temp of the meat over 190 or so is the key to tender meat. This applies to most red meats. Wrap the meat in foil after it hits 150 or so if grilling, to prevent dryness. My favorite is to hit it with some meat tenderizer the night before. Next morning, your favorite marinade. Mine is Allegro. Just before cooking, cut meat into bite-sized pieces and shake some type of dry rub on them. Cook in a skillet with salted butter, just like stir fry. Good eating right there!

Just wondering, did you get a pass through with that pellet ? I had to give up trying with my springer, things were multiplying like rabbits. Trapped ( live catch) 6 of them in two week period so far. But there’s a couple smart ones now that won’t do the trap thing.

Thank you all.
Nice tip James.
Ghost: I don’t think the pellet pass thru. Must have defrag inside. 15yard down shot from 2nd floor. Didn’t really inspect close enough as it was getting dark fast. I saw the masked face thru a small opening in the tree at 5x, and took a shot.
