I think you need to go back and do a re-write, because as written, it would seem that she was skinning it while it was still alive. Poor word usage. Obviously, it had been a live squirrel, but she skinned it after it was dead-----no big deal.
And HELL YEAH!!! I'd flip off PETA too. I like this girl already.

Jennifer Lawrence must have a thing for squirrels ... and no, we're not talking about "The Hunger Games." The actress recently admitted to Rolling Stone that she skinned a live squirrel as part of her Oscar-nominated role in "Winter's Bone." Jennifer Lawrence said, "I should say it wasn't real, for PETA. But screw PETA." Whoa. Them be some fighting words.
PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) has now responded to her remarks, with President Ingrid Newkirk telling Gothamist: "She's young and the plight of animals somehow hasn't yet touched her heart. As Henry David Thoreau said, 'The squirrel you kill in jest, dies in earnest.'

"When people kill animals, it is the animals who are 'screwed', not PETA, and one day I hope she will try to make up for any pain she might cause any animal who did nothing but try to eke out a humble existence in nature." So ... whose side are you on? PETA's? Or do you think J-Law was just getting into character when she skinned a squirrel?

Wild game taste the best... Screw PETA!!!
I am not against the killing of animals for meat and clothing.
But I am against it if it`s done only for sport, and of course if the animal suffers a slow death or is tortured before it is skinned. Like when they are skinned alive.
So how can someone skin something alive if it isn`t alive ?
But OMG I guess some people are too stupid to figure out that one to.
I forgot to mention that they could have used simple traps to catch the animal, duh !!!!!!!
Oh and it`s done in China all the time , skinned alive and not sedated....
That is one of the dumest things I have heard... You want to skin something you kill it first.
There is no way the left overs get thrown out, no way, they are too frugal for that, Peoples left overs get used to make other stuff like soup , or it`s put back out into the Buffet.
Like I said though , nothing against the Chinese , love em great people, great culture.
People who hunt squirrels do skin them before they cook them and eat them. Personally, I feed squirrel peanuts, and have not interest in killing, skinning, or eating them.
There is a whole push to attack this poor girl, I guess because she is famous, and is going to be part of one of the most popular movie series ever. I have seen her called fat, which is an absolute joke, and now she is a live squirrel skinner. WTF?
They do it everyday in China and other countries to , It is just so heartbreaking.
I hope she didn`t do it. But to all the people who torture animals, I can only wish that the same fate meets with them one day. Humans aren`t more important than animals, not to me anyways. no way . I will never think differently about this. Humans are destroying the planet not the animals.
The squirrel was dead.
