It takes a lot of skill to take a shot at hit a 4000 pound docile animal that is standing still.

I have also hunted, nothing larger than small game, and in some cases I have eaten what I have hunted. Dove, squirrel, rabbit.

Recall that this hunter said she got 2000 lb (1 TON!) of meat off of the giraffe. That's a lot of trips to the grocery store.

I know of no greater luxury than giraffe marrow, unless it is elephant's heart, and we had that on the morrow. --H. Rider Haggard, King Solomon's Mines

That’s a lot of meat, and I am glad to know that it was not wasted.

Giraffe marrow is not something that I know about, but I would try it, because I will try any kind of food at least once, and if I like it, I will eat it again, even stuff that raises eyebrows. You never know what’s really good.
