Just about every year we get someone who has been watching too much TV and comes to live off the land. The two strangest things eaten I ever heard of were a couple of guys up near Livengood with a porcupine, skinning must have been a treat. They claimed it was just fine. The other was a guy went up one of the rivers and got so desparate he shot a raven and tried to eat it. The smell was so bad he had to stand down wind couldn't get it down and offered it to his dog who just took a wiff and did that deep in the throat warning growl. The dog left probably knew anyone that desparate would figure what else could be eaten.
