Skinning out the animal also helps reduce the chance of spoilage. Some thought should be given to the spot where a deer is hung. In recent years, a number of deer hanging from camp poles were stolen or eaten by hungry bears. * A LESSON WELL LEARNED... LANCASTER FARMING'S CLASSIFIED ADS GET RESULTS!
