Default Fur in Freezer

So was wondering what is the max that you could leave a full bodied fur bearer in the freezer? That is completely whole not skinned. Over time would the hair start to fall out?

No, it'll eventually dry out in the freezer. It's life expectancy whole will increase if you seal it up good in a plastic bag. Some freezers are worse than others.

Out of curiosity what about bagging one and freezing it in the shed. Its -20 to -30 here. Can that extreme cold and being kept outside have any harsh effects?
