In regards to fleshing the pouch area if your doing a lifesize,the pouch itself is only a thin layer of skin like a baloon attached to a entrance hole covered in fur.depending on when the animal was taken if the pouch was or is being used depends on the size of the hole.if not in use the hole is rather small and hardly noticed.i suggest you remove the whole pouch it should pull loose and just need trimming near the entrance and flesh the rest as normal.hope i have helped.
