I've noticed this too on the 2 characters I just switched over to skinning. It's pretty annoying, especially when you're right on the threshold of being able to skin the next level of beastie. :)
I suspect that they deal with different gathering skills in different ways. Skinning being one of the easiest to level up, they probably don't guarantee a skill-up on an orange mob whereas with mining I've got a skill-up from pretty much every green Tin node I found until I could mine Iron.
