I dunno ... makes me feel like grabbing my gun and going out to kill something for supper (that would be tea in your uncivilised land). Pity it's not hunting season

I suppose I could throw a line in the lake or in the Cataraqui River (great bass fishing) and catch something to eat.

Leather is a material created through the tanning of hides and skins of animals, primarily cattlehide. The tanning process converts the putrescible skin into a durable, long-lasting and versatile natural material for various uses.

Leather comes from sheep - Hide comes from cows.

Leather can come from a few animals, am guessing its what the "processed hide" is called, but back when I used to work in furniture, when a hide was requested from a supplier then it was always from a coz, never had a sheep hide before

but saying that, i do have a nice lamb skin rug

Pigskin is used too - recognisable by the tiny holes where hair bristles were
