WHAT DOES SKINNED MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Skinning

Skinning, a gerund from the verb to skin, commonly refers to the act of skin removal. The process is usually done with animals, mainly as a means to prepare the muscle tissues beneath for consumption and/or for use of the fur or tanning of the skin. The skin may also be used as a trophy, sold on the fur market, or used as proof of kill when collecting a bounty from a government health, agricultural, or game agency, in the case of a declared pest. Two common methods of skinning are open skinning and case skinning. Typically large animals are open skinned and smaller animals are case skinned. Skinning, when it is performed on live humans as a form of capital punishment or murder is referred to as flaying.
