    Caping - "Turning the ears"???

    Would someone please explain the process of turning the ears on a cape for the taxidermist. I've caped many a head but never "turned the ears" on one. I've always jus cut the ears off at the base and threw the head in the freezer/cooler.

    NM UNIT 27 Weather

    I posted this in the Whitey thread, thought I'd get more responses here. I have a Dec. 7-15 Coues tag in 27 and was just wondering what kind of weather to expect around this time? Also, what about around the first of the year in SW NM for Javi tags? trying to figure out sleep systems.
