Here at Cafe Wafa Wafa, we serve only the best in local babboon, and how would Monsieur Selous prefer his babboon? with or without le maggots?

Sorry for the double post.
Nobody has asked the real important question...
What type of wine to you serve with ape?
Interesting. So, how would you suggest having wild critters?

"You want flies with that?"
"Yeah, gimme some large flies"
Oven-roasted.....
Seriously...
Less government-owned land. Wild critters that move from one piece of property to another will always be a problem. (i.e. A case of mad-cow in the US is very rare and makes the news big-time, but a case of the similar disease in deer is very common and not news worthy.) Private owners protect their investment. Basically, the government "owns" wildlife. They decide what can be hunted and when, even on private property.
Aha!
This explains everything.
I imagine that the monkey meat was sold on a large scale in San Francisco, Miami's South Beach, Cape Cod and several other "trendy" spots.
And here we thought all along that it was the homosexuals' untidy sex habits that were causing this epidemic.
I wonder what part of the monkeys was most popular?
I think that's fine here. I'm not sure it would be feasible in Africa. However, I don't think cows are numerous for any reason other than the fact that not only can you sell the meat for money, they are also quite easy to raise in large numbers. I don't think the same thing would work for gorillas (or elephants either). However, I've been wrong a time or two!

Cannibalism requires the consumption of one's own species. Apes and humans are not related.
If I wanted something that tasted like chicken, I'd eat chicken. I couldn't imagine ape meat being very appealing. It seems it would be overly tough and stringy.
I almost missed this. Actually the only bit of the baboon worth eating is the brain - and you need to boil that for at least an hour. The end product is a tasteles mush but, mixed with some sadza and a bit of seasoning if you've got any, it'll keep you going for a few days.
Mind you, I'd probably go for the maggots instead. Pound for pound, they've got lots more protein.
