I wonder if I can get bear somewhere where I am at the moment? Maybe I can find a russian restaurant, but my wife would refuse to go, so maybe not so smart after all. =/

No, no at all, it's our hate that makes us strong, as the emperor teaches us!

 Japan alone is driving their extinction, TOO tasty !

Jokes aside, no extinction in sight. They are actually recovering. Icelanders
and japanese, and faroese are bright enough to understand that overfishing leads
to destruction of the business, so whale there is as ethical as it gets.

 Too bright to eat IMHO ... feel more "moral" with
 something more stupid.

Strange... by taste and look, I would have thought closer to a cow than a pig.
Looks very similar to beef when cooked.

 As for bear ... it CAN be had sometimes in the
 American west. Wyoming, Montana, that general
 area. They are hunted, but not all so much by
 and large, so it's a matter of lucky timing.

I had alligator and it's ok. I would like to try python, since I heard that this
is the cheapest protein you can farm, with the exception of insects.
