A lot of people I've spoken with basically end up trashing the fat of their kills after butchering. I want to throw out there that rendering animal fat is about as easy as making soup/stock and it keeps a LONG time without refrigeration. I make soap as a hobby, and it's great for that (superior to all vegetable based soaps IMO), but it can also be used for a ton of other things. Candles, food source, cooking oil, gun grease in a pinch, salves/lotions/shaving cream, a LOT of other things and supposed to have other sort of holistic benefits when it's from a wild animal. Preppers probably know a lot more about that stuff than I do.
There's a ton of information about how to DIY render animal fat online to anyone that's curious.
And if anyone does do this already or knows anyone who does in Oregon, it would be great if you'd shoot me a message. Would be willing to buy with cash or can trade with soap after I make it.
If this belongs in the classifieds section I apologize but I figured a lot more people would see it here and could get some ideas on using it themselves too.
