I am looking to do something really interesting. I would be very interested in what weird/rare hides you all have seen or heard of. I think it would be great, as I am kind of stuck on ideas for what could else be leather?

Besides the standard exotics (ostrich, shark, snake, lizard, etc.) I have researched and found the following hides:

Beaver Tail

Elephant

Seal

Kangaroo

Frog

If any of you have seen or heard of any more please let me know. I do not approve of poaching in any way. I do however wonder if they make leather from deceased Zoo lions or tigers? This is just speculation. Again NO poaching!! Anyways, let me know guys and gals. Hopefully my upcoming project will be truly unique.

Snapping turtle, sturgeon, canebreak rattler, Texas hornback lizard, pangolin (anteater) turkey, hippo, snapping turtle, giraffe, Nile monitor, tegu lizard, and probably more I’m forgetting. I know it’s an old post, just in case anybody sees this, I have them all, in stock

GILA MONSTER

IS THAT POSSIBLE?

I've Alum tanned deer, rattlesnake, bull snake, ground squirrel, tree squirrel, and mice. The tiny pelts my cat would leave behind. 

Ghia monster? It'd probably take 3 of them to cover one boot.
