Ackley Posted March 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2009 Did you eat the Zebra & Giraff? we didnt personally as a Giraffe taste like ****,the locals eat it though,all meat harvested in Africa goes into the food change,nothing is wasted when you see an entire village coming out to skin and butcher the animals with blunt knives,even the kids get stuck in,nothing goes to waste,even the intestines are dried out and used Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
