Rabbit Fur

[Burly Brute]

Zach, I hunt a lot, and often bring home rabbits. Several years ago I contacted a fur tanner to get information on how I could turn these skins into something. I was told very simply that rabbit skin is too thin, prone to tearing, and that fur loss was a strong risk as well. I abandoned the idea at that time.
I do see your interest, in that there are many fur sporrans on the market that are made with rabbit (real and synthetic) fur.
Anyway, I guess this is not too helpful. Good luck with whatever you are thinking about trying.

No, this is helpful! This was the impression I was under, I too have rabbit hunted since a lad and aside from the tough jack rabbits out here, I can't see how it is feesible, hopefully someone can shed some light on the subject. It's too bad, cus those things are everywhere out here.
