I got several raccoon road kill tails I want to work on. One tip, tho. Trim the hair off the tail instead of throwing the whole tail in a zip lock bag. There's still enough flesh there to rot and whew, does it stink after a few weeks.

Stop at one of the deer processors and you can get all the tails and hide you want..And 20 mule team borax is a good preservative if you can find it..
