They are bigger than I thought they would be. What's the fur like? Wonder if they ever used them in the fur industry.

They are very big gophers. Some of them have decent looking fur, like this one.
When I was a kid I’d skin them open and stretch them round like a micro beaver.
I’ve saved the blue ones in the freezer.
