I don’t know about lion meat but they served it (mountain lion) in Happy Camp, CA during WWII according to my parents. I’ve eaten or attempted to eat bear leg roast. It required a cold chisel and single jack to cut.
When I was working in NYC, a co-worker’s fiance was visiting from Africa. He said it’s common to eat monkey meat. Also, another friend said he has tried hippo meat.
NOOOOO thank you!!
