I'll move this up here because it seems to fit, what with PETA in the name of this post.
Click my name for more hilarious animal-activist antics. There is a town in South Dakota named Spearfish. This town has a high school named Spearfish High School. They received a letter from PETA asking them to change their name to "Sea Kitten High School" because the new name would “reflect the gentle nature of its current marine namesake”.
'Cause nothin' says "Sea" like the Black Hills of South Dakota.
I don't think I could get myself to eat racoon. They run free and eat anything that they can get their paws on. I just keep thinking about all the diseases and parasites that they might harbor.
I believe I will stick with USDA inspected meat. I know it's not a perfect system, but at least someone is looking.
“Most parents would never dream of spending a family weekend torturing kittens, but hooking fish through their mouths and pulling them through the water is just as painful as hooking a cat’s mouth and dragging him or her behind a car,”
Bullshit. BUUUULLL-SHIT!
You hook a kitten by it's mouth and drag it behind a car, it dies. No exceptions. You hook a fish by it's mouth, drag it to shore, unhook it, and release it, within 10 mintues, it's metabolism is back to normal, and it is back to doing whatever fish do like nothing happened.
I don't know where anybody got the idea that a 'coon is a helpless, little, furry critter. If you doubt my word just go out and corner a 3-1/2 foot long 40 pound boar raccoon. Speaking of critters, we used to shoot aramdillos with an old .30 G. I. carbine. About as much sport as shooting a rock. They do make good chili though.
I recently caught two that were in my attic, and took them out past the St. Johns and let 'em go. Had I known they were good to eat, I would have taken them out past the St. Johns and let 'em go. Nasty little critters.

And the coon said to the white man? Eat me!
Never ate racoon. Have eaten possum and sweet potatoes though. Tastes like armadillo.

Raccoon doesn't suck, nor does it taste like chicken. More like venison really.
Better if soaked in butter milk overnight.
Baked with lots of onions, use the dripping to make gravy.
Possum is too greasy tasting.
Armadillo needs hot peppers.
Heidi,
I saw that sea kitten thing locally here a few days ago. I checked my calendar to see if it was April 1st.

Did you hear about the guy on trial or eating a bald eagle?
The judge asked him what it tasted like. He said, "its like a mix of California Condor and Spotted Owl!"

Of course, truth never seems to matter to PETA.
I've been to Spearfish,SD. I don't think there are any PETA types there.
C-bug,
I been there too. The locals probably ate the PETA types.
(How big are raccoon boobs I wonder?)

A. Ok you two! Enough already! One would think you're obsessed or something...
B. I'm shocked that both of you have been to Spearfish. It's not that big a town. Were you on vaction in "the Hills" or on your way to Sturgis?

You country folk sure do have strange eatin habits! I wouldn't eat anything that didn't eat me first.
Pass the ketchup.
Squirrels are the best vermin meal you'll ever eat but it takes a hell of a lot of fried squirrels to make a decent meal. Same with doves.
