It's True! A British conservationist claims he’s lived off roadkill for 30 years, cooking up owl curries and rat stir fries to make use of meat that otherwise goes to waste.
Jonathan McGowan, a 44-year-old professional taxidermist, began his foray into roadkill cuisine at age 14, when he cooked a dead snake he found on the side of the road, the Daily Mail reported.
It wasn’t the greatest meal, but McGowan said he was intrigued and and came to see the ecological and culinary benefits of eating only meat he found dead on the side of the road or in the forest.
“I believe it’s a much better meat,” he told CNN. “It’s totally organic, and otherwise it would totally go to waste. To see so many animals in the UK run over every day, even on a short journey, I think it’s a wicked waste.”
