Best Answer

A Tanner in Colonial America and today is the man who takes the hides of animals, especially cows and deers, and tans them. That is the method of cleaning and scraping the hides and making them into leather. Not a fun clean job! The tanner would not only make the leather goods he would also garner oils from the animals and sometime he was also the butcher of the animals. Many of them also prepared furs and took care of the leather side of the fur.

because I'm not too sure. But I think its a man who takes and hides animals. I'm guessing its true, because I searched it.
