Phillipe has been trying this shite since the 80s. I have fished with him before. It was the fastest I've ever gone in a boat. CSB

Yeah. And years ago there was actually a guy pitching on Shark Tank for a harvesting idea. They balked because the fish wasn't known as an eater and wouldn't market well and 'ugly to look at'. Apparently tastes good, though.

So many people say that about oysters, crawfish, squid, etc.
I've eaten nutria several times and I love it. There's lots of meat on a single nutria and it makes a very good gumbo when combined with a good andouille sausage.
Last time I made nutria based gumbo I seasoned it well, cooked it for a bit on the grill then tossed it in the pot to cook down enough to remove the pieces and debone them, then put the broken up meat back in the pot.

Fry these things up and use them on salads lie croutons:

Nutria is better than rabbit, with bigger thighs, lil harder to clean, more fur and a lot more guts, but a lil more tender than rabbit. No wild taste at all. Back in the day (80's) when the marshes were fresh, they were thick. Usually, on the way to the camp, on Friday nites, we would have nutria.

Made me think of Bucc-ee's.

Haven’t seen a place near me that sells it yet. The main issue will be fillet size. I imagine it’s pushed as an appetizer.

Does that apply to illegal aliens too? Asking for a friend.

Carp is far too bony to be served like most other fish

I mean... We eat plenty of disgusting creatures. Chickens, squirrels, crawfish live in mud, shrimp and filter feeders.

If you catch a boar, geld it and feed it out for a few weeks it makes amazing sausage. Problem is technically its illegal to have them in captivity.

Apple snails need to be on that list if they aren't

If nutria or carp were in a menu, I’d give it a shot, but you aren’t going to get most to try it
Surely we can make dog food out of Nutria.
And Asian Carp would make great cat food.

The best thing to do is to destroy the eggs by removing the masses from any place they are attached to above the water.
Apple snails can not hatch in the water.
Do not use your hands to remove the egg masses.
According to the LSU AgCenter, "Skin exposed to apple snail eggs should be washed immediately."
So, why do you need to wash your hands?
The LSU AgCenter says, "The eggs contain a protein neurotoxin called PcPV2, which has been shown to be lethal to mice and it can cause irritation of the skin and eyes of humans."
Despite Apple snails being harmful to humans in these ways, you can eat them.
The LSU AgCenter advises that if you are going to eat an apple snail, please you caution when preparing the meal.
"The snails are edible when thoroughly cooked and properly cleaned by removing all intestinal material," according to the LSU AgCenter.
If you don't prepare a meal of apple snails correctly, you could die.
The LSU AgCenter says, "Raw or undercooked snails can contain rat lungworm, a parasite that can cause potentially fatal eosinophilic meningitis.

Never heard of an apple snail and had to look it up. Are they tasty?

I'm fairly certain someone along the Mississippi river has already been harvesting Asian Carp for cat/ dog food? If not, that's absurd? But what I meant was I thought I heard of a company doing this in Illinois or somewhere?
Game like Nutria and wild hogs there's not really a method to go from field to table in the USA like there is fish? Hell, why aren't we feeding wild hogs to dogs via dog food?
The mistake most people make is making wild game something its not. You need to do like the French or others and just cook a select few dishes where it shines. Like Turtle soup, Gar Balls, etc.
