Overview[edit | edit source]

The Taxidermy Tool is used to collect the Dermis of any Creature with a harvestable corpse. Simply hitting a tamed Creatures is enough to collect their Dermis . A Creature's Dermis can only be collected once.

Notes[edit | edit source]

When the Taxidermy Tool is used on a corpse for harvesting other resources it will yield more Meat than a Stone Hatchet.
