Cut up into small serving pieces.
Put a soup Cast Iron Pot on the stove and add the meat.
Cover with cold water and bring to a boil over high heat.
Lower the heat and boil until the meat is tender, about 40 minutes.

Mix real good until the batter is about like cake batter.
Heat the lard in a deep fryer to about 360 degrees.
Dip the pieces of skunk in the batter and then fry them in the deep fryer until golden brown.

Consider White Beans and Rice as a great side dish!
