Leather can be made from cows, pigs, goats, and sheep; exotic animals such as alligators, ostriches, and kangaroos; and even dogs and cats, who are slaughtered for their meat and skin in China, which exports their skins around the world.
Animal hides are soaked in bactericides and detergents to remove the remaining protein and prevent the growth of bacteria.
They are then sent to a tannery to be preserved and soften. Once again they are soaked. This time in tannic acid solution. The tanned hides are washed and cut to a desired thickness. They are then go through a dry process. They may be streched to avoid shrinkage and constantly sprayed with soap and water to avoid stiffness. Once dry, they are buffed.
