Leather
Tanned hide: armor, saddles, and the belts of the machines. Fur does the same job.
In the game
How to get it
Cows drop 1 or 2, horses 1 or 2, behemoths 3 to 6, goats and kangaroos 0 or 1. Fur (bears, rabbits, yetis, shadow cats) counts as a hide too.
What it is for
Hide armor, the saddle (5 hides), the sewing machine, the metal mill and the concrete mixer (belts), the paraglider, the fur coat.
Why it exists
Hides come from the herds: a reason to raise cows and to hunt.
The same text the game shows in its progress tree and on the item's sheet (I).
Leather is the hide of the big grazers. Wherever a recipe asks for a hide, leather or fur both work.
