    Now I have to call my brother-in-law, who lives in W. Virginia, and ask him to see if he can pick up a well preserved skunk pelt and ship it to me! Nothing like a do-it-yourself project! Thanks for the tip! New toupee, here I come!

    Just make sure your brother-in-law sees that all-important little word pelt!

    Most of the road-kill around here is possum, every once in awhile skunk, with the odd racoon. The possum and the skunk are usually pancaked, the racoon tend to be roadside. Never thought about claiming one, but sounds doable.
