There was a lot of that "cat haters are serial killers" discussion happening on the Twitter thread of that short clip of the girl disliking having the cat on her lap (it was posted here last week I think). ![]() If you take anything more away from a ten second clip of someone grimacing at a cat sitting on their lap than either A. nodding in solidarity (if you don't like cats) or B. rolling your eyes (if you do like cats) ....then you are Too Online.

I have eaten wild boar and it was delicious, and did not taste like urine, sweat, or feces. Are there geographic differences? Or was the meat I ate from females? Or something else?

Waste of Breath posted:"Androstenone (a male pheromone) is produced in the testes as male pigs reach puberty and gives the meat a urine or sweat flavour, while skatole (a byproduct of intestinal bacteria, or bacterial metabolite of the amino acid tryptophan) is produced in both male and female pigs and gives the meat a 'fecal' flavour. " Disease is different between countries (and time), f.ex. we don't have Brucellosis in wild boar in Sweden, and every felled animal is by law required to be tested before it can be used for anything. Trichinosis is the big fear and a very good motivator for legislating. https://www.slu.se/forskning/kunskapsbank/publicerat/viltnotiser/sjukdomsframkallande-smittor-hos-svenska-vildsvin/ As for taste, them there kings preferred piglets. Age is one thing that greatly affects what meat tastes like, the food that fed the animal is another. This is true for all animals including humans if anyone's curious. I haven't eaten american wilded hog or any other variant so can't speak to that, but I've thought local wild boar tastes worlds better than domesticated pig for what it's worth? Like a cross between pork and beef almost. Also piglets are super cute and hyper intelligent and I can't bring myself to eat pig anymore.

Arsenic Lupin posted:I have bears (probably just bear singular) so there idea of a gut pile gives me the cold whim whams. Do you compost it? Vultures and/or coyotes if I had to venture a guess.

Yorkshire Pudding posted:There is an age, probably like 13-16, where you can no longer use the excuse “nobody taught me how to do this thing”. Unless you’re like, Amish or have parents that make you live in a closet 23 hours a day, any human can choose to learn how to do things. There’s a boyinaband song where he gets really upset that he was never taught what laws there are. It probably won’t be a good defence to use when he gets prosecuted for being a nonce, though.

Blackula Vs. Tarantula posted:I have eaten wild boar and it was delicious, and did not taste like urine, sweat, or feces. Are there geographic differences? Or was the meat I ate from females? Or something else? It heavily depends on the animal. A large old boar is going to be nasty. A young pig is pretty drat good and can be smoked or grilled whole for a fun party treat. Also depends on what they've been eating. Pigs living in corn fields taste different from pigs living in landfills. It's relatively common to live trap hogs and feed them corn for a couple weeks before slaughter to make them taste better. Bar Ran Dun posted:The Internet greatly exaggerates. Also this. See the above post about hunting pigs being equated with hunting elephants. Just herds of mythical bulletproof elephant sized hogs roaming the countryside.

to be totally fair, if you're hunting wild hog in somewhere like the everglades swamps, you're probably coming out with some parasite ridden boar with all sorts of new diseases

Twitter is coming from itt now so this is the last I'll add to it: african elephants were taken with marginal .22 calibers successfully and so where wild boar. There is nothing people won't suggest .22's for. That does not make elephants into hogs, jesus Hogs are not buffalo, but they are much harder shot than small deer or something else fragile where a regular ubiquitous north american 5.56 AR-15 could be a maybe thing as a hunting rifle choice. An AR-10 or even larger custom varaiant is a much better starting point for hunters, but even then .308 winchester isn't large in european wild boar standards. US hunting circles are way too cavalier about every. single. thing.

Boars are hunting coded which is right wing adjacent which means lefties online have to histrionically pretend like wild boars are made out of circus meat so they can be smug about it. "Wild boars" in NA are all feral pigs descended from domestic animals brought over starting in the 17th century, they are not indigenous. The only ones that are wild are escaped Russian boars that were released here in the 30's for hunting purposes. They taste like pork, because they loving are pork. You take a pig off a farm and put it in the wild and in the very next generation the piglets will start to grow hair and tusks.

We do have Javelinas in parts of Texas and Arizona that are native to North and South America. I haven't read up on it but I would have to assume they are being outcompeted by feral pigs though. They are a lot smaller and taste amazing.

I haven't read up on it but I would have to assume they are being outcompeted by feral pigs though. They are a lot smaller and taste amazing. Yeah but those guys don't get above like, 60 lbs. I mean the issues with wild pig meat are the same issues as with any game meat: it's unregulated, so it's likely to have parasites, diseases, and not have been fed on a scientifically composed diet intended to grow fat, flavorful pigs. Trichinosis effectively does not exist within the controlled commercial pork industry. Not the case with wild pork.

Don't eat it rare if you're worried about parasites I guess? It's usually made in a stew and it's normal to eat in this part of Europe whenever it's available.

now here's one of my favorite kinds of tweets, where a guy is flabbergasted that people who like things will freely praise them and give money to people who make good art/games/music/whatever: https://twitter.com/quill18/status/1600277862350786561 People like Thing? They're freely giving away their money and their good word just because they like it? Surely they're insane.
