Robert F. Kennedy Jr. admitted that he had been picking up roadkill meat his “whole life” and that he had a “freezer full of it” at home in a revelation that comes just days after his bizarre Central Park bear cub dump bombshell.
On Sunday RFK Jr. admitted he was responsible for leaving a dead bear cub in New York ten years ago after he picked up the animal he said a woman hit with her van. The presidential candidate published a video online talking to actress Roseanne Barr on Sunday, trying to get ahead of a New Yorker article. At the time, the incident was a national story in the press – first published by his own relative in the New York Times.
On Wednesday the independent presidential candidate for the 2024 election was defending his New York residency in court on Wednesday when he responded to journalists outside who were more interested in asking about his habit of picking up roadkill. RFK Jr. prompted laughter from reporters, speaking outside the Albany courthouse, said: “I’ve been picking up roadkill my whole life. I have a freezer full of it.”.
However, according to the Associated Press, his campaign spokesperson Stefanie Spear later clarified that Kennedy was serious, noting that he used the roadkill to feed his birds.

Well doggie .. RFK Jr. is fixing up a pot of goffer guts and possum inners for dinner.
RFK jr and Granny Clampett would have got along nicely.
Ditto that here. A few years back a huge buck was hit. He had a huge rack on him. I think it is illegal to take game animals with out a tag, even road kill, But it didn’t stop Cletus who had a bone saw out and cut the deer’s head off and threw it in the back of his pickup faster than I’ve ever seen.
I think Jr. could use some of Granny’s “”rheumatiz medicine”
Good FReepers - Must not read whole articles!!
“”his campaign spokesperson Stefanie Spear later clarified that Kennedy was serious, noting that he used the roadkill to feed his birds.””
Beast Feast.
He’ll get the rural vote.
There'll be peace when you are done.
“People think I had a medical issue regarding my voice.”
“Truth is, I never should have tried unskinned porcupine.”
Further explanation...
“Kennedy campaign spokesperson Stefanie Spear later said by text that he wasn’t joking. She said that’s how Kennedy — a falconer who trains ravens — feeds his birds. She added that he no longer has the 21 cubic foot (0.59 cubic meter) refrigerator, which had been in New York’s Westchester County suburbs.”
I’m thinking on a new hobby right now...
Try RFK Jr.’s Himalayan Possum recipe. First get your possum. You’ll usually find him a-layin’ on the road.
In KS you have to call KHP and they come and give you a claim so you can legally transport, then you have buy a road kill tag. Its all really very achedemic until you get caught covered in blood and a carcass in the trunk.
I would have thought Freepers would be more knowledgeable about this activity. Eating road kill is not weird. Most states allow for the taking if road kill. I belong to a Facebook group in WA that alerts members of fresh kills. Utilized quickly it is perfectly safe and healthy. Both my son and a friend who are avid outdoorsmen in this geir own right have utilized this resource. I guess some of you city slickers need to get out more often.
That was a decent thing to do. I cannot stand to see animals suffer.
We can kill them and eat them, but there is a difference between an animal killed with cruelty and an animal killed without it.
Hahahaha good one
