“...thank goodness things aren’t bad enough to eat possum yet.”

I was watching a video about Detroit, and they were talking with some old, OLD guy and he was saying how rough it was, how poor he is, etc. (In the background were a couple of dogs barking and I was thinking - well - maybe you could find another home for the dogs and save some money).

As soon as I had thought that he was out of his chair and going into the backyard where he had a freezer. A sign said “Coons: $5.00 2 for $8.00”

He used the dogs to hunt raccoons in the wilds of Detroit! And sold them for food. He described how to prepare them too. I really felt bad judging the guy, and here he was just another entrepreneur!

(They also showed how much of Detroit HAS turned back to wild land). Of course all of those videos were made back in the days of G.W. Bush.

That must be some interesting scenery, a major city turned into farms and woodlands.

I don’t know about eating raccoons, though. Being a cousin of bears, I imagine they are really greasy.
