time and practice. Squirrels have a pretty tough skin so you are not going to rip it unless you are really tugging on the skin witch I have no idea why you would do that in the first place. I am going to suggest that you purchase a video and go from their. The video will explain a lot of your questions and you will be able to see it done.

there are a lot of instrutonal videosout there. John Bellucci (LordRusty) and David Elzey have a seminar from the word show on DVD on mounting a squirrel available from WASCO. Denis Rinehart has a good squirrel video available
http://www.americantaxidermyonline.com
. Get your self supply catalogs from Research Manikins, Van Dyke's, McKenzie, Jonas Bros, Matuska taxidermy supply. David Elzey's DVD or VHS is available from all or most of those supply company's I just named off to you or just order it from him direct from his web site.

I just did one holding an acorn and just use regular super glue. Didn't take more than a few seconds and then you can let it alone.
