How to Stretch and Dry Beaver Pelts Using Hoops: Introduction Video From New England Naturals

After the fleshing process is complete a beaver hide needs to be stretched and dried. This can be be done in a variety of ways, the most common are metal hoops and wooden boards.
We have found that hoops work best for larger beaver pelts and boards for smaller but both methods will complete the task.

    Been trapping 58 years, used willow branches for stretching beaver and fencing nails. To sow the holes fishing line and needle.

    Use a leather punch to punch holes in the pelt

    I know if you leave a fur out for a short amount of time, the hair will slip. Does stretching speed up the drying time of skin, preventing hair slippage? Thank you!
