I have a recipe for crow from a book published by Field and Stream magazine in the early 1960s. The breasts end up in a casserole pan in the oven, cooking in sour kraut. No, I have never tried it, and can’t think of a single good reason to attempt that, now. The same book suggests that opossums are tolerable if you capture them and get them on a diet of persimmons for a month or so, before the attempt of turning them into table fare.
I’ve never been that hungry.
As a kid, we tried to eat a lessor Canada goose, that I suspect had a strong preference for mollusks, or some other nasty creature that lives in mud. The oven stunk up the kitchen, and, when it was over, the dog wouldn’t eat it.
Best,
Ted
there is an old in the south about eating "a mess of possum and irish potatoes"...
