The recipe you use to make any meal will influence how it tastes As a beginner duck hunter I would kill one or two and prepare them We would eat them but it as not a meal that was our favorite meal Them we found and used a different recipe And that changed the tune to go shoot a couple of ducks Having said that even though I give you credit for making a sincere effort at trying it You will likely not see me standing by kettle labeled Red Fox unless my survival depended it Such as the soccer team that crashed in Peru many years ago

I have never tried red fox or coyote and don't plan to, but I did try timber wolf once at a game feed. I would not recommend it. I would guess fox or coyote would be comparable. There are so many other good meats to eat, why would you want to eat any of these? crazy

I'm just a curious soul by nature. Like I said, I only eat the back strap
The front and back legs get handled to much with dirty gloves.
I'm kinda picky about my food grin

Back some time ago I was involved in fox farming. One day some oriental gentlemen showed up wanting to buy our fox carcasses. They offered us $3.00 a carcass. Of course, we sold them since we had to get rid of them anyway. They were from a very well-known Oriental restaurant in Madison. I never ate there again.

Coon is not awful. I hope I never NEED to eat a fox. I know people who like bobcat I am not one of them. Like coon its not awful. Duck goose all on the list of not very often.

Beav, I ate at a Chinese restaurant in Great Bend KS a few years ago. I ate some coyote at a trapperman feed years ago. IN maybe? Pretty distinctive taste. I didnt eat much. No body else did either. Got some meat at that Chinese place sure tasted like coyote to me.

I've heard that from so many people that I assume it must be true.

I've eaten Lynx and It's really good. They say Mt lion is better than elk.
OGorman brought some coyote sausage to a NTA convention, and it wasn't all that bad.

Exactly. I agree.

The best part is that you tried it.

The second best part is reading the comments.
