just got my first bobcat to do yesterday. luckily its not a customers. its a nice big cat, 35" from nose to base of tail. problem is, its been frozen maybe up to 2 years, not exactly sure. the feet are solid as a rock. cant get down near toe bones. so i skinned it today and its in the fridge over night. ive heard of people using windex to soften up freezer burn. yes or no? any tricks to help me out wold be appreciated.

Ryan, Best thing for freezer burn is very simple. Get a needle and syringe, insulin syringe or one from a vetrinarian is fine. Inject every dry spot with warm water, you will be amazed how easy this is and how well it works. Injecting the ears will be the challenge but once you get the water in it's like splitting a fresh ear. Enjoy, Aaron H.
