Rabbit is my favorite meat. It's all I bother to hunt. My .22LR rifles are tack drivers. 32 hairs behind the eye. I take two plastic bags in the field. 1 for meat, 1 for pelt. I dress them in the field separating meat/pelt/entrails. Mine are usually oven baked with a sage bread dressing in the body cavity.

In my grad school immunology class, we used lab rabbits to generate antiserum for a variety of antigens. If it wasn't a human pathogen, the rabbit was permitted for food after the final exsanguination. At that point in time, my skill at doing cardiac punctures to draw blood was pretty good. I never lost a bunny. One of my fellow students made a pin cushion of a bunny. It screamed, peed on the table and died. What antigen? Beef heart extract. Dinner! Grain fed lab rabbit is excellent.

I haven't gone turkey hunting, but we have LOTS of wild turkeys around Pocatello (surrounding mountains). I'll have to avail myself of a wild bird soon.

When does your turkey season end?
