Of course squirrels count! They can count nuts, right?

Does it have to be wild? What about farm raised boar or venison? What about buffalo? Is that considered game?

peeps · Feb 17, 2015

Roadkill legal? I mean, in Texas, gathering up roadkill is legal, but for the TD, I mean ? :becky:

Smoke Dawg · Feb 17, 2015

How about fish if I cought it myself?

Never thought of harvesting them this way.

dadsr4 · Feb 17, 2015

Do feral dogs and cats count? Rock doves?

I'm sure Moose and Peeps will answer the legality questions. as far as for why I choose it:1) its been over 5 years since it was done last 2) there have been a bunch of Q talk threads recently about game, especially venison 3) it pushes people out of their comfort zone.

Those that live near cities should have access to markets where wild game is sold. And those of us in the rural areas should have some in the freezer or at least know someone who does.

I want to see some folks take what they have learned from cooking chicken, pig, and cow and translate it to something new.

GAME ON!

I know I can buy some game meat locally at the store. I'm just not sure about how "Wild" it is if they sell it at the grocery store. For instance, they have camel. Could I cook camel? Its outside of the normal meats, but its no doubt domesticated.. I would imagine their venison isn't wild either.

Ron_L · Feb 17, 2015

Yep... There are places to buy exotic meat, but they are from domesticated animals, not wild. I'm sure if I really wanted to I could get something that was once wild from a friend who hunts, but I'm the only one in the house who would eat it :tsk:

THoey1963 · Feb 17, 2015

Yeah, I have friends that hunt boar and deer locally, but I don't. And if I was to impose upon them for some meat, I am sure they would give me some, but the wife probably wouldn't come any where near it...

After saying that, I am not against the TD at all. It will be great to see what others come up with. I'll just be a spectator for this TD. Sorta like some of the TD's I have entered, just won't cost me anything this time. :mrgreen:

oifmarine2003 · Feb 17, 2015

Sounds good to me! Good pick. I almost picked this one last month.

dadsr4 · Feb 17, 2015

Most people have access to rock doves aka pigeons. More meat than mourning doves.
