If your tannery did a good job, as they should, the hide should go back to the size it was when it was alive.

He already has his hide tanned. And I don't know about all that "total control" stuff. You put it in a drum, add your cake mix, and turn the oven on. When it's done, you open the drum and remove it. Doesn't sound like too much control to me.
