My mom used to say “skin a rabbit!” To get me and my sibling to lift our arms and she’s quickly take off our shirts before a bath or bed or whatever.
There was also an old dude that lived next door that used to farm rabbits and skin them in his back yard.
It more than likely refers to skinning animals, as people did that themselves more commonly back then.
In that usage yes, but the grammar in the image implies a different definition.
I mean yes, but when you skin a rabbit, you rip the skin off really quickly. So pretty sure “skin” here means to do something quickly
