Just to clarify the part I said about the drumskins, not using the whole of the animal if it has been killed, is a great disrespect in I opinion. Personally, I would never kill anything knowingly, but as I said to a friend who just bought an air rifle "if you kill anything with that, you're eating it", because otherwise it is just a malicious and wasteful act. If a man kills a goat and just takes the skin to make a drum or the meat to eat, then that animal died just for the skin or the meat. It is better and more respectful to the goat to make use of the whole thing right down to the bones. That way it's death was not in vain. The meat can give sustenance to those who eat it, the skin can make a Nyahbinghi drum, the sinew can make string, the bones can make all sorts of things.
Blessed love.
