Every animal has a unique skin map. The dermis, the inner layer of the two main layers of the skin, attaches to the muscle and bone beneath. To open skin an animal, the body is placed on a flat surface. A cut is made from the anus to the lower lip, and up the legs of the animal. The skin is then opened and removed from the animal. The final step is to scrape the excess fat and flesh from the inside of the skin with a blunt stone or bone tool. The epidermis of a dog is 3-5 cells thick and a human’s epidermis is 10-13 cells thick. The bottom line is that you can’t flay a pig the same way you’d flay a man. But the real skill is not in how you remove the skin, but in how you piece it back together. That’s where it becomes an art form…
