I've never tried bear and don't think I could eat cougar either, but I've had excellent reindeer meat in Alaska. And Elk makes a really good burger.

It tastes really, really gamey and strong, and I don't care for it.

Of course, it has to be practically unrecognizable (like as jerky or summer sausage) for me to eat it. I'm too much of a weenie to try it any other way :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10509532.post-18005405238321911942009-04-05T17:51:00.000-07:002009-04-05T17:51:00.000-07:00#1 The name of this event just makes me laugh.#2 ...#1 The name of this event just makes me laugh.<BR/><BR/>#2 Eating cougar whilst looking at a stuffed cougar is part of the charm of the event!<BR/><BR/>#3 I'm so glad the evening exceeded your expectations!Joie de vivrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04090182072040742810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10509532.post-9736091985589110082009-04-05T17:26:00.000-07:002009-04-05T17:26:00.000-07:00Wow, I've never seen so much meat!

Can't say I've ever had the opportunity for that.Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17146268170259914927noreply@blogger.com
