>>281399Only difference is you wouldn't have a tail and you would do the feet. It's just a larger animal. Fleshing is the same process but as to how hard removing fat and flesh from bear hide I don't know. Tanning would be no different.
Sure they are different but having some experience doing small game would be a big help when doing a bear as opposed to having zero experience. Em specially when skinning the head and fleshing the hide. I can almost guarantee someone with no experience would put a few holes in it.
