When I was 12 or 13 ('72 or '73) a buddy and I had gone duck hunting and wound up also bringing home a muskrat. I tied flies for a little extra money back then so I skinned that muskrat out to use later. Since I needed to read up on how to preserve it I rolled it up, wrapped it in butcher paper, and threw it in the chest freezer and promptly forgot about it.
You should have heard the screech my mom made when that package of 'burger' she thawed out for dinner turned out to be a muskrat hide!!! LOL! My ears are still ringin' and I was finally able to sit down again last year!
