How do they taste?

Reminds me of a story where sheepherders want to cull the coyotes eating their sheep. One lady suggested they catch and neuter the coyotes. A sheep herder replied. Lady they aren’t raping our sheep they are eating them.

Good eating, I've read. Recommend 1-1/4 oz. of #6 shot.

I’m thinking turkey shot would work.

There’s a flock of these beautiful nuisances in the San Gabriel Valley in southern California.

The coyotes seem to think that they taste just fine.

“Finger lickin good”

They taste very very good. 300-400 yrs ago, they were the food of royalty; though more for their low reproduction rate than taste (few chicks- few meals).

OBTW, I was thinking the same thing.

Peacocks taste good. Sorta between the Bald Eagle and the Spotted Owl.
Mmmmmmm, good!

British historian Sir Stephen Runciman once ate peacock, as he described in his „Traveller’s Alphabet“, but was rather unimpressed, describing the meal as tasting like „a coarse old turkey“.

Or was the cook just unqualified? We don’t know…
