Catch, butcher and preserve one large mammal (deer, pig, elk, etc) - foraging.straw.deer PEP BB

This is a badge bit (BB) that is part of the PEP curriculum.  Completing this BB is part of getting the straw badge in Foraging.

Large Mammals are fun to catch.  They're also good to eat.  Youtube and/or your grandpa can probably teach you all you need to know to catch and prepare a large mammal.  Preparation methods vary depending on the species. For instance, Pigs can be scalded and scraped or skinned like you would skin a deer. Preparation techniques also vary by country/region so do whatever you want as long as the animal is treated humanely.
