I guess every dog like every person has their likes and dislikes but my mutts love Hare when they can get past me to get it first.
We have quite a few Hares on the property we live on and I try to farm them by not taking more than is needed to keep the numbers reasonable.
Rabbit is the only game meat I don't eat as I find it has no real flavour of it's own.
Rabbit is also one of the few meats that take more energy to eat than it provides.
I read once that during the Klondike gold rush there was a really hard winter and people died of starvation even though they had plenty of rabbits to eat.
Anyway back to Hares,I like them because they do have dark gamie flavoured meat.
I think Kiwi's are to fussy "soft" when it comes to game meat.
Goat is the most eaten meat in the world but most Kiwi's turn their nose up at it in favour of mutton which to me is really strange because I find mutton to be rather greasy stuff while goat is just right.
Much the same with venison,,I prefer winter Red Deer venison to grass fed Fallow,,,,not that I turn my nose up at it but I do prefer Red.
We have fallow deer on the property and surrounding area but in the 5 years we've been out here I've shot a grand total of one,plus their pretty tame so it's not as if it's hunting anyway.
I took the browning for a walk around the swamp this avo,,saw nothing got nothing I think the ducks have all moved to town for their holidays
