Some years ago a friend prepared Raccoon cacciatore for a game dinner we were putting on. ( I beleive i made the frog legs that year :-)) It was delicious. However, it was very hard to digest (and I have a cast iron stomach). I was burping it up for three full days! Others had the same issue. Not sure if it was something in the meat or ....... Bottom line: I'll try anything but raccoon is right up there with snapping turtle on my don't bother to cook /eat list.
