I took in 5 prairie dogs to lifesize, My question is, should I have them tanned or should I DP them? Iam not a big fan of dp, but I want to here from other people what works best for them.

Never mounted a prairie dawg, but i would treat them like a squirrel and tan. Just my preference.

I would tan them

but then again I tan everything no matter how big the animal is. If you are already not a big fan of dp go with the tanning .

Degrease em good first

They tend to be a little greasy so I don't use DP on them, we degrease them and wet tan them.
