I skinned or hulled one out for a fellow one time. he said he would eat it if someone cleaned it so he ended up eating it.he said it wasn't bad.Porky taste.I passed on it.

Never thought of videoing it ! Thanks for the idea !
The two I shot with the same arrow/bolt was a "spot and stalk" thing. Might make a funny video though !

so do you eat it or what? can you really make boots or something from skin? I shoot the heck out of woodchucks, and don't do anything...some times we put them in a metal basket over the pond to let rot and feed the fish with maggots but no one likes seeing it, but they like fishing with waxies after I prime the pump!

I don't shoot them with bows because I don't wanna have to touch them. Disease-ridden little critters. The 38 is my preferred medicine. For a good shot, I have to be closer than I would with a bow. And there's no arrow pulling.

As long as no organs are damaged or cut, armadillo makes great eating. Taste like baby pigs, I have been eating dillos for almost 35 years. Wear rubber gloves while cleaning and removing the shell, then rinse the meat, season and cook! Yaaa Yummy!!!

I wonder if you sprayed them down with a bleach mixture in a sprayer? We do this with alligators which are some kind of nasty when you catch them. Would it kill the leprosy bacteria that grows on some of them.I just don't like taking a chance on getting the one and catching leprosy from them.I have seen those leopard colonies with their fingers and toes falling off.I'll shoot them but not going to touch them again.
