| 879608 | 2010-04-27 16:12:00 | Mmmm . . . . . steak . . . . . !!!! Never tried Moose Steaks, but Elk are very good - in fact better than beef . I dislike venison (deer) though . I've had turtle and conch when we lived in Jamaica and Cuba . They were particularly good too . Turtle was caught, hauled onto a beach and beheaded then slid into a pit that had a fire built in it while the natives went turtle hunting . There had been fires and big stones placed into the pit and then the turtle was dumped in there on his back and covered with seaweed and sand and cooked for a day . Hmmm! Good! Bear is kinda greasy and almost black/green in color . Wild turkey is kinda stringy and duck and grouse/pheasant are not much on the bone like squab . We raised our own 35lb/16kg turkeys that were the best I've ever eaten . I devoutly love NZ lamb and mutton though . Is there any lobster in the ocean water round youse guys? |

| 879609 | 2010-04-28 04:20:00 | Is there any lobster in the ocean water round youse guys? Is the Pope Catholic? Do bears etc We invented them, except we call them crayfish. Then we send them all to export markets so they're outpriced for what is left for the domestic market. I remember in the 70's I would go fishing for crays off the coastline at Makara. Me and a mate would wade around, pick up them up with our hands, about 10 - 12 in as many minutes. Then take them home to cook, keeping what we wanted, giving the rest away, or selling them to the local pubs or restaurants. But sadly most of the spots are fished out. |

| 879610 | 2010-04-28 07:26:00 | Same with abalone here. We could eat what we caught without a license if we ate them on the beach adjacent to where we left the water after capturing them. Those days are long gone now and it's illegal to even bother an abalone and if you get caught you get a hefty fine. Were you really catching lobsters or longusta? There's about a 10-lb difference. |

| 879611 | 2010-04-28 07:27:00 | Not the little <40 lb ones, they get thrown back ;) These sort? (web.ecomplanet.com). The steaming bit behind them is White Island, a gentle (at present) active volcano. |

| 879612 | 2010-04-28 08:07:00 | Youse guys don't know nutthin' about American animals - gack! But - no, they are not domesticateable (an olde word I just made up) and so far as I know all the meeces and mooses, misses and their male-mates: Moosters, are all considered wild and dangerous . Sometimes they are seen in the company of flying squirrels . This reminds me of a hilarious book I picked up in Jasper (Canadian Rockies) entitled "When do you let the animals out?" . It was full of real stories and questions that people ask the information centres or park rangers . For example: At what elevation does an elk become a moose? Do you have your animals on display somewhere, behind cages? Don't you groom your animals? They look terrible! Are there birds in Canada? How do the elk know they're supposed to cross at the elk crossing signs? :D |

| 879613 | 2010-04-28 17:02:00 | I saw - although I cannot remember where/when - that some guy had a Mooster (male moose) under reins and pulling logs out of the woods - maybe in Georgia somewhere. Not Georgia, Russia, but Georgia USA. The Mooster was H U G E and the harness was all custom made, but he could do the work of a troika of Missouri mules for a lot less food. Unfortunately, he had to let the Mooster go every rutting season or suffer the consequences of ruined harnesses and logs tossed willy-nilly long the roads. So I guess one could say it was only partially domesticated. |
