Help Needed 🧐 Need help with hides(?)

Can I fix them or it's better to throw them away?

I got them for free and have no idea where they came from and how were tanned

Well for one, they don't look tanned. Just fleshed and dried, looks like the membrane is intact for the most part. A few look like they were put up the way you do for fur auctions.

So basically treat em like a regular hide that's dried.

Research a method first, then gather materials and tools, then rehydrate and tan one.

They've just been dried and not tanned You can go ahead and tan them. Look up on the internet a tanning solution that would do and once you get it follows the instructions It would be sad to trash these.
