    No. They most likely taste pretty terrible and will have bad meat on them. Not to mention the fact that many of them are endangered.

    A quick Googling confirms that. Tough and gamey.

    Is it bad that I'm more concerned about how I'd cook elephant than whether or not I'd eat elephant?
    Why would you eat dog?, just out of curiosity.

    The other option was horse. I think they might have both been the same option, actually.

    No of course not. I'm not going to eat animals that have shown far higher intelligence than the usual livestock. This includes pigs, not because they are "haram" but because they are highly intelligent.

    I would never willingly eat octopodes/squids, dogs, dolphins, whales, ravens/crows, chimps/apes, horses, or rats either.

    There's far better animals to hunt, that aren't gonna kill you in your hunt. Risk vs Reward.

    I think the "sad" truth that the most tasty animals are already very common on our plate.

    You think squid is on the same level as dolphins and chimps? Have you never had calamari?

    I don't know, I once tripped on a chicken. I wasn't even trying to eat it.

    I have when I was younger until I read up on them. Squids have complex learning, social, and problem solving behaviours including using trial and error.

    Also very short life spans and among the most renewable and environmentally friendly sources of protein.

    Good guys, squids. Or gals. I don't know how to check.

    I want to eat guerrilas, kangaroos, koalas, gators, bears, and I don't know what a wallaby is but I want to eat that too. I'd never personally go out of my way to kill9nbof those animals, but if it presented with an opportunity where they die naturally or something, then munch.

    Sure. Not going out of my way or pay a lot of money to do so though. More or less the only species I would have qualms about eating is human, even though human flesh is the same as any other flesh in regards to nutrients/composition.

    My perception is based on the circle of life, and that even the animals on top of the food chain end up serving as food for fungi, worms, bacteria etc.

    Yeah but pork has been bred for meat, no one hardly eats wild hogs.

    You can get prion based diseases from cannibalism or eating beef from a cow that has mad cow disease. The most well documented one in a cannibal tribe is called Kuru and the one you get from eating beef is called Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease if I remember correctly.

    The world of "artisan" pork might astound you.

    I happened to be in France when the mad cow scare happened. Duck became the primary meat for a while over there.

    Duck is awesome.

    Yeah I love duck as well, haven't had it in a long while though. Usually I cook a lot of chicken at home with different veggies thrown in, and sometimes beef or mutton as a change of pace.
