Full mask sporran: which animal?
Can anyone tell me which animal this could be? I'm not really versed in flattened animals

David is correct. It's a Polecat, which were primarily used for boys sporrans due to their small size. Kate Macpherson, my full-mask sporran maker, does offer this style from time to time, basically when she acquires an animal from local farmers in Inverness-shire. The fur is entirely too light to be a Scottish Pine Marten. See mine below.
