What three animals everyone else eating? We’ve got chickens, ducks, pigeons, quail, geese, cranes, turkeys, cows, deer, elk, moose, antelope, armadillo, beaver, bobcats, coyotes, foxes, lynx, bear, bison, caribou, goat, musk ox, pronghorn, sheep, muskrat, opossums, pigs, porcupine, rabbits, squirrels, pheasant, chukars, and tons of tasty insects to choose from.

You forgot the many difference species of fish/creatures-of-the-sea.

To get 80k they're obviously counting variations. How many breeds of cow have I eaten?

Tell me with a straight face that you eat a fucking squirrel

THAT'S the one you take issue with? Lol

In not sure anyone is eating muskrat or opossum outside West Virginia mountain hermits, people born before 1890, and anyone who self identifies as a trapper.

Eat the elongated muskrat!

Squirrel are fantastic.

They’re the least “gamey” out of most small game, less so than rabbit, and taste something like leaner dark meat chicken.

Awesome in a crockpot substituted for chicken in most recipes. Can fancy up squirrel with a Sous vide to make squirrel confit bánh mì tacos, or keep it old school and make squirrel pot pie.
